ScienceHow did climate change fuel the wildfires ravaging Europe this summer?

A new study from researchers at World Weather Attribution says human-caused climate change significantly contributed to wildfires that have affected France and Spain over the past week. The scientists linked the fires to hotter and drier conditions associated with climate change. They estimated that such conditions made the fires twice as likely in France and 20 times as likely in Spain.
