Douglas McIntyre, Editor-in-Chief at Climate Crisis 24/7, reports on wildfires that have reached Los Angeles, fueled by 100-mile-per-hour winds and dry brush from ongoing drought. The Pacific Palisades, a prominent area, is currently burning, with 50,000 residents ordered to evacuate. McIntyre emphasizes how climate change accelerates such disasters, with fast winds and dry conditions creating uncontrollable wildfires that threaten large urban areas like Los Angeles.
