In Canada<\/strong>, climatic factors are increasing the intensity and frequency of wildfires<\/strong>, which have now ceased to be a simple seasonal phenomenon. This is claimed by Hossein Bonakdari<\/strong>, a professor at the University of Ottawa, in an article<\/a> published in The Conversation. \u201cWildfire season in Canada has historically spanned from late April to August \u2014 with the most damaging of these fires typically burning in June and July\u201d he writes. \u201cBut in recent years, we\u2019ve seen a significant change in when wildfires burning.\u201d<\/p>\n For example, he says, \u201cin 2024, Alberta\u2019s wildfire season started in February due to the province\u2019s warm and dry conditions. Qu\u00e9bec recorded its forth earliest wildfire since 1973<\/strong> in mid-march of the same year. British Columbia then reported their first wildfires of the season shortly after.\u201d And none of this, of course, happens by accident.<\/p>\n
