1 day agoClimate change driving conditions for Iberian wildfires: Study
Climate change is helping to make wildfires that ravage hundreds of thousands of hectares of land on the Iberian Peninsula every year more common and intense, according to a new study. Researchers from the World Weather Attribution (WWA) network said in the study released on Thursday that the hot and dry conditions driving wildfires in Portugal and Spain, as well as other parts of Europe, were 40 times more likely to occur because of climate change.
