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.

A new study led by an ecology and evolutionary biologist at UC Santa Cruz finds that temperature changes due to climate change have a doubly detrimental impact: Not only do they destabilize animal populations,

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.

Extreme conditions helped drive the fast-moving fires that destroyed thousands of homes in the Pacific Palisades and Altadena.

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.

While discussing the fires on his podcast, Rogan took aim at "a really goofy thing that people on the left are talking about."

Global warming exacerbated fire conditions in the Los Angeles area, an analysis by the research group World Weather Attribution finds.

An international panel of scientists says with "high confidence" that climate change is worsening Southern California's fire threat.
