A Drier Future Sets the Stage for More Wildfires

The video discusses the impact of climate change on fire risks, highlighting California's campfire as a case study. It explains how climate change leads to drier conditions, increasing fire risks, but also notes that prolonged droughts can reduce fires due to lack of vegetation. A NASA study shows greenhouse gases have influenced drought patterns since the early 1900s. Researchers use models to predict fire spread and manage planned burns, with NASA monitoring these changes to prepare for future drought and fire seasons.
