The bushfire emergency in Australia is the result of climate change
BALOCHISTAN: The bushfire emergency in Australia is the result of climate change. It has taken place in some major states of Australia like New South Wales, where the toxic bushfire smoke has made a very thick black blanket in the sky. Near the seaside towns the people are living in dangerous conditions. Eighteen people have been killed as a result in rural areas and more than 1,000 homes have been destroyed. It seems that the Earth is changing into Mars. Up till now thousands of animals have been killed and the fire has burned 4 million hectares of land. In fact, scientists believe that the climate change is creating longer and more intense bushfire seasons. The fire and smoke has a huge effect on neighboring countries as the smoke crossed the Tasmanian Sea and covered the New Zealand. Climate change is very badly affecting the environment and it is becoming a real challenge to regain our suitable environment again.
