As bad as it is, let’s hope the Situations in Greece and Italy give some real change in climate politics. The fires hit much more people on a personal level as well as the tourism industry compared to the droughts.
In the USA and Canada the right wing responded to the biggest forest fires ever by accusing their opponents of lighting fires to trick people into believing in the climate change hoax. This took down my faith in humanity another notch or two. Greece and Italy both have a strong far-right presence so it wouldn’t be surprising were this same conspiracy theory to emerge there too.
