Extreme conditions helped drive the fast-moving fires that destroyed thousands of homes in the Pacific Palisades and Altadena.

While discussing the fires on his podcast, Rogan took aim at "a really goofy thing that people on the left are talking about."

The recent wildfires in California were worsened by climate change, a report found. The study, released Tuesday by World Weather Attribution, found that human-caused climate change increased the

The analysis by the World Weather Attribution's climate scientists links the fires that broke out on January 7 to man-made climate change, which has extended the fire-prone conditions by an additional 23 days each year in California.

Climate change was a major factor behind the hot, dry weather that gave rise to the devastating LA fires, a scientific study has confirmed. It made those weather conditions about 35% more likely, according to World Weather Attribution - globally recognised for their studies linking extreme weather to climate change.

New research shows climate change increased the likelihood of the devastating fires in Los Angeles County this month. Climate change helped to set the stage for the devastating Los Angeles fires this month, a new study by 32 researchers shows.

Climate change caused by human activity increases the risk of devastating fires, like the ones in Los Angeles, California,according to the World Weather Attribution (WWA) network. The fires left at least 29 dead and thousands homeless.

The hot, dry and windy conditions that preceded the Southern California fires were about 35% more likely because of climate change, according to a new report.

Human-caused climate change made the Los Angeles-area fires more likely and more destructive, according to a study out Tuesday. Why it matters: The study — from an international group of 32 climate researchers — shows how climate change fits into the myriad factors that made the multiple blazes one of California's most destructive and expensive wildfire disasters on record.
