Climate change contributed to big Canada fires, study says as Trump blames mismanagement

A study released by World Weather Attribution stated that human-caused climate change doubled the likelihood of tinderbox weather conditions that sparked Canada’s massive summer wildfires. The research determined that global warming, specifically 2.5 degrees or 1.4 degrees Celsius since the industrial age and burning of fossil fuels, made these events more probable. Experts criticized U.S. President Donald Trump for blaming poor fire management instead focusing on historical US emissions.
