Summary

[edit]
Description
English: This graph shows how climate change will increase risks associated with wildfires in North America. The graph legend is available as a separate image. Risks are shown for the present (2014), near-term (2030 to 2040), and long-term (2080 to 2100). Long-term risks are shown for 2 and 4 °C of global warming relative to pre-industrial times. The top of the grey bar shows the risk level based on current adaptation practices to climate variability and change. The top of the black bar shows the risk level based on a hypothesized, highly adapted state. Graph data is available in a later section.
