Original Note:
The 2023 IPCC report predicts " At 4°C of warming, the global burned area is projected to increase by 50 to 70%" We are at 0.9C and 300%. Global warming is not the primary factor leading to this past fire season, it may be underfunded mitigation. https://www.ipcc.ch/report/ar6/syr/downloads/report/IPCC_AR6_SYR_LongerReport.pdf https://www.nsnews.com/bc-news/bc-to-bolster-wildfire-budgets-by-517-million-over-three-years-5091752
