There are more forest fires in Europe. Researchers make a new study. They say: The climate change is a reason. The earth gets very hot. It rains rarely. There is much wind. This causes big fires in nature.
The researchers calculate 2 ways for the future. The earth gets a little warmer. Then 39 percent more area burns. The earth gets 3 point 6 degrees warmer. Then the area triples. This means: It burns almost 3 times as much as today. The Mediterranean region and Central Europe have big problems.
People can do something against the fires. We must release fewer bad gases. This is climate protection. Help on site is also important. The fire department needs better tools and more money. We prepare well. Then we stop many fires. Extreme heat makes help very hard.
