Expert: Australia bushfires

Published: 8 January 2020

Australia continues to burn after more than a month of raging bushfires, and it doesn't appear the smoke-filled skies will be clearing any time soon. More than five million hectares have burned, 19 people have died, and 21 people are missing. Tens of thousands of people were forced to flee their homes. More than eight million more were under an emergency order. ()

Here is an expert from 成人VR视频 that can provide comment on this issue:

The wildfires in Australia provide an unfortunate example of the serious and immediate threat posed by climate change to the planet and populations around the world. They also illustrate the significant human costs of Australia鈥檚 failure to reduce its carbon emissions in line with what climate science tells us is necessary to avoid the most catastrophic consequences of the climate crisis.鈥
