The fires in Los Angeles, California were fighting to stay alive for weeks! Although fully contained, lives have been lost, and tens of thousands of people have had to flee their homes, and leave everything behind. You may be asking yourself, who or what caused the fires? To answer that question, powerful winds and dry conditions are fueling the fires. No one is to blame for this disaster (except climate change).
