This Senate resolution formally recognizes that climate change is significantly contributing to the increased frequency, intensity, and destructiveness of wildfires. It highlights that rising global temperatures and drought conditions create more common and longer-lasting 'fire weather,' with human-caused climate change being the primary driver in the American West. The resolution cites data from NASA and the United States Forest Service, noting that fire seasons have extended and extreme wildfire activity worldwide has more than doubled over the past two decades. It also references the substantial annual economic cost of wildfires, estimated at $424 billion, and a specific destructive event in Los Angeles. Ultimately, the resolution acknowledges the critical need to fully fund and adequately staff federal wildfire prevention and response activities to address this escalating risk.
