Climate Change Made Deadly France and Spain Wildfires Far More Likely, Study Finds A new study has confirmed what many have long feared: human caused warming is making extreme fire conditions at least twice as likely in south western France and at least 20 times more likely in central Spain.

The devastating wildfires that swept through France and Spain last year left thousands of homes destroyed, over 250,000 people displaced, and an area larger than the Isle of Wight reduced to ashes.
