Australia is on fire. Nearly half a billion animals have been killed with more than 14.5 million acres burned. This is climate change. UPDATE — Nearly 200 fires are still burning across Australia. The death toll has climbed to at least 24 people and more than 1,200 homes have been destroyed.

More than 15 million acres of land has been scorched – 7x the 2019 Amazon fires and 3x the 2018 California fires.
