Report: Climate Crisis Significantly Increased Likelihood of Los Angeles Fires
An event like the Los Angeles fires is now likely to happen every 17 years, a World Weather Attribution report said.
Climate Change Increased Likelihood Of L.A. Wildfires, Report Finds
The study analyzed weather and climate models to assess how a warmer atmosphere is increasing the likelihood of fire-prone weather. It revealed that the extreme conditions driving the recent fires in Los Angeles are now expected to occur once every 17 years, compared to once every 23 years without climate change.
Conditions that fueled L.A. fires were 35% more likely because of climate change, scientists find
The hot, dry and windy conditions that preceded the Southern California fires were about 35% more likely because of climate change, according to a new report.
Climate change made devastating LA fires more likely, scientists say
Climate change made devastating LA fires more likely, scientists say - Analysis found the hot, dry and windy conditions that drove the fires were 35% more likely due to 1.3C of warming.
Climate change ignited LA’s wildfire risk — these startups want to extinguish it
Extreme weather conditions will be more common, according to the study, adding fresh urgency to a burgeoning group of climate adaptation startups.
Study: Climate change made conditions that fed California wildfires more likely, more intense
Human-caused climate change increased the likelihood and intensity of the hot, dry and windy conditions that fanned the flames of the recent devastating Southern California
Climate Change Made LA 35% More Primed to Burn, Scientists Say
Global warming exacerbated fire conditions in the Los Angeles area, an analysis by the research group World Weather Attribution finds.
Climate change made LA fires worse, scientists say
Climate change was a major factor behind the hot, dry weather that gave rise to the devastating LA fires, a scientific study has confirmed. It made those weather conditions about 35% more likely, according to World Weather Attribution - globally recognised for their studies linking extreme weather to climate change.
Climate change made LA wildfires 'more likely' according to international study
Climate change caused by human activity increases the risk of devastating fires, like the ones in Los Angeles, California,according to the World Weather Attribution (WWA) network. The fires left at least 29 dead and thousands homeless.
Climate change made the L.A. wildfires 35 percent more likely
A new report suggests that climate change-induced factors, like reduced rainfall, primed conditions for the Palisades and Eaton fires.
Climate change made conditions that fueled the Los Angeles fires 35% more likely
The analysis by the World Weather Attribution's climate scientists links the fires that broke out on January 7 to man-made climate change, which has extended the fire-prone conditions by an additional 23 days each year in California.
