Prepare For Devastating Bushfires, Australian Climate Council Warns

SYDNEY — Australians are being warned to prepare for another devastating bushfire season this year, particularly in New South Wales.

A new report by the Climate Council, which was abolished by the Abbott government and is now funded by public donations, warned the length and severity of the bushfire season is increasing year on year.

"Record-breaking heat and hotter weather over the long term in NSW has worsened fire weather and contributed to an increase in the frequency and severity of bushfires," the report said.
