How Wildfires Relate to Climate Change |
|
| Some wildfires are a natural part of ecosystems, helping to renew forests and grasslands. However, climate change is making these fires more intense and harder to control. Rising temperatures, prolonged droughts, and drier vegetation create the perfect conditions for wildfires to burn hotter and spread faster. Natural factors combined with human-caused climate change make fire seasons longer and more destructive. While wildfires are part of nature, the way they’re growing in size and intensity shows how urgently we need to address climate change and take action for our planet. |
