The glowing skies were a reminder of the disaster that has claimed at least a dozen lives in Australia over the past week and burned an area the size of West Virginia so far this season. Climate change has led to conditions that are particularly ripe for fires.

灼热的天空让人想起了澳大利亚上周的灾难,造成至少12人死亡。这个季节到目前为止,这场灾难烧毁的区域相当于西维吉尼亚州那么大。气候变化为火灾创造了成熟的条件。2019年是澳大利亚史上最干燥最热的一年,周六也是悉尼历史上最热的一天,达到了令人灼热的120度,而首都堪培拉达到了110度。
