Australian Wildfires Were Caused By Humans Not Climate Change. In Australia there was a huge fire in the province of Western Australia in 1962 which led to a decades-long campaign of intense prescribed burning.
Researchers from the World Weather Attribution group found that human-caused climate change increased the chances of Australia experiencing extreme fire weather by at least 30. That group includes children playing with fire who then lose control and those with developmental disorders. The 30 percent figure they calculated is a minimum.
Geoscience Australia states that lightning is the main natural cause of bushfires accounting for about half of all cases. Australian Wildfires Were Caused by Humans Not Climate Change.

Moreover 67 of the arsonists.
Human-caused climate change had an impact on Australias wildfires a new attribution study confirms. Half of bushfires are started by people under the age of 21 Dr Read tells the BBC. Arson is not caused by climate change.
