Spain, France, Greece, Italy, Portugal, Scotland, England and more all saw dramatic wildfires last month and many are still burning.

Over ONE MILLION acres burned across 1,400 different fires in Europe in July. Across the EU, the amount of area burned is 3x more than normal by this time of the year.

The largest fires — near Madrid and Bordeaux – are 3 of the 15 largest fires that have burned in Europe over the last decade.

More than 300,000 people have had to evacuate from France and Spain as the blazes have exceeded firefighting capacity.

SPAIN
🇪🇸 Spain suffered its largest fire on record.
🇪🇸 The amount of land consumed so far this year is at record levels for the last two decades.
🇪🇸 Over half a million acres burned near Madrid.

FRANCE
🇫🇷 A wildfire in France generated such intense heat that it caused the country’s first “Fire Cloud” that produced lightning and downdrafts which created an unstoppable cycle of new wildfires.
🇫🇷 Over 200,000 acres burned near Bordeaux.
🇫🇷 40% more land has already burned in France than in the previous record year.
🇫🇷 Entire communities have been lost as fires burned close to many highly-populated urban areas.

REST OF EUROPE
🇪🇺 As Spain and France contained their fires, new fires are still growing across Italy, Greece and other parts of Europe.

WHY ARE THE FIRES SO SEVERE?
Climate change is the main reason wildfires are spreading so rapidly. The high temperatures and frequent heatwaves across Europe this summer have dried up vegetation, providing fuel for the fires.

Europe is already the fastest-warming continent, heating at more than twice the global average, and forecasters are predicting even more heatwaves and wildfires will come this summer.
