WhoWhatWhy - South America, according to a new study published in Communications Earth and Environment, is becoming drier, warmer, and more flammable. These conditions favor not only natural wildfires but also the uncontrolled spread of human-caused fire. Even though general warming trends extend across the continent, some zones are enduring a steeper temperature rise than others. And this rise comes with more droughts and higher fire risk.
