La Belgique pourrait bien à l’avenir être confrontée à des feux de végétations et de forêts plus nombreux et plus intenses. Une menace sérieuse qui a mené à la création d’un réseau belge de lutte contre les feux de forêts : le "Belgian Wildfire Network".
Wildfires used to die down and even stop at night with cooler temperatures and increased humidity. But a study released Friday says climate change is making burning weather more around the clock in North America because night is becoming warmer and drier. Canadian fire scientists say potential burning hours for fires have increased 36% in the last 50 years. California now has about 550 more fire-friendly hours a year than it did in the 1970s. North American summer nights are warming faster than days, evening relief is evaporating for forests and that means the area of land burned is soaring.

As the administration took a victory lap for hammering out a Gaza ceasefire last week, Kushner, Trump’s son-in-law, stood in Tel Aviv’s ‘hostages square’, addressing a feverish crowd that had booed the mention of Israel’s prime minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, and later broke into chants of: “Thank You Trump!”
Reports suggest the administration’s staffing cuts may be hampering its firefighting capabilities.
