As we wake up to a smokey morning as #Australia prepares for another #bushfire season, I'm remembering the 2019-20 #megafires, when the smoke was as thick as soup.

Lyrebirds are social learners and mastering their vocalisations requires a lot of practice. Working hard to impoverish lyrebid vocalisations: habitat degradation, fossil fuel cacophony, and bushfires.

Two killed in #Greece - The captain and co-pilot of a plane fighting wildfires in Greece were both killed when their aircraft crashed on the island of Evia while it was trying to put out a blaze, the air force said 😥 https://www.jpost.com/breaking-news/article-752430

Les animaux aussi sont évacués (au moins les domestiques et familiers, les sauvages rester brûler :((
Tortues de terre notamment.

#Megafires Le Québec brûle (une centaine de feux toujours actifs). New York est devenue irrespirable. https://france24.com/fr/am%C3%A9riques/20230608-en-images-le-qu%C3%A9bec-br%C3%BBle-new-york-devenue-irrespirable

90 % de ces feux sont d'origine humaine : BBQ carnistes, jets mégots de cigarettes, sciage de long avec engins phalliques igniteurs. 💀
On aura, espèce irresponsable, littéralement foutu le feu à la baraque.

#Wildfire in a warming world.
"Cultural burning is safer for #koalas and better for people too. There’s overwhelming evidence that #megafires are part of the new normal. #Climate change will continue to create the exceptionally dry fuel loads and dangerous fire weather that lead to catastrophic events. So we need to find ways to minimise the damage."

@itnewsbot I hear you, but I can't help but think of trees as standing kindling at this point in the process of abrupt #climatechange - the #wildfires are turning into #megafires now.
