Western wildfires have increased “suddenly and dramatically” since the late 1980s and the wildfire season grew longer — a pattern that appears tied to global warming, according to a study published Thursday.
“The increase in large wildfires appears to be another part of a chain of reactions to climate warming,” said Dan Cayan, a co-author of the paper and director of the climate research division at Scripps Institution of Oceanography



No, fires start with a higher temperature, dumbass, not from climate temperature. The reason the amount of fires has increased is because of stupid ass, tree hugger inspired legislation that restricts back or clear cutting, brush removal and fire breaks in order to "perserve habitat" for small mammals. (read vermin) This is not my call, but the US Forestry Department's in a statement made in the late '80's opposing the tree hugger legislation, due to the potential increase of brush fires. How soon we forget the "Inconvenient Truth".
