Whilst there is yet to be a clear indication of what ignited the fire in Los Angeles, multiple reports have linked it to severe droughts and strong winds.

Though uncommon, one possible source of ignition is dry air combined with wind, which means the fire could have been self-ignited.

The adverse effects of climate change are clearly on display in LA. While this may be a result of climate change, it is also evident that leadership has failed the people affected.

My thoughts are with those whose lives and properties have been impacted by this devastating inferno.
