Most fires in Greece were started ‘by human hand’,
government says
Official blames arsonists for the majority of 667
blazes that have spread in the extreme weather
Most of the 667 fires that have erupted across Greece
in recent weeks were started “by human hand”, the
country’s senior climate crisis official has said.
As the Mediterranean country emerges from an
unprecedented, 15-day period of heatwave-induced
infernos, the scale of the destruction is finally being
laid bare.
While weather conditions have been different from any
other year – with experts calling the first three weeks
of July the hottest on record – most of the fires could
have been prevented, the government claimed on Friday.
Vassilis Kikilias, the Greek minister of climate crisis
and civil protection, told reporters: “During this time
667 fires erupted, that is more than 60 fires a day,
almost all over the country. Unfortunately, the
majority were ignited by human hand, either by criminal
negligence or intent.

add that to almost 550 fires in Canada and it makes one wonder why all it does is
ad more CO2 to the atmosphere.
I see on FOX weather the number of fires in the US is growing too.

I see the arsonists setting fires as not really caring
for the environment - don't you? they look to be
environment terrorists, maybe trying to force the
alarmists to get moving quicker on taxing the poor/
countries to get on board with this alarmist agenda.

Its been happening in Greece for several years now-
arsonists burning Greece down. What is their motive?
Someone's trying to steal Greece? Greece not complying
with the world bank debt makers? Really truly evil.
