Effects of Climate Change on Wildfires in the US
Resource 1 facts:

Wildfires are common where there is a lot of heat along with dry conditions.

Fire seasons will continue to grow longer as climate change increases the risks of these wildfires happening.

Resource 2 facts:

Due to the heating and decrease in moisture available due to climate change there is more dry fuel available for these wildfires to use.

Resource 3 facts:

This heating from climate change along with the excess fuel may bring these wildfires into urban areas of the US.

Climate and how is affects forests is a large factor into natural wildfires.

Resource 4 facts:

Fire seasons will become longer with the increased heat during the summer and spring.

Wildfire risk is highest during the summer when the temperature is highest, therefore the projected increase in temperature due to climate change will increase the risk of wildfires more.

Resource 5 facts:

The consistent increase in heat due to climate change has cause a drying of the fuels for wildfires.

Fire suppression has caused many of the effects from climate change to worsen due to the increase of vegetation available.

There is a loss in winter snowpack due to the warming from climate change.

Resource 6 facts:

As there become more forest fires within these main climate change caused factors of increased heat and dryness, there may also be an increase in the time for recovery for these areas.
