Drone video shows fire devastation in northern Athens

More evacuation alerts were triggered this morning on Evia while residents appealed for additional firefighting help. Footage shows the blaze raging on as evacuated locals watch in horror from inside a ship on Lake Evia. Hordes of residents are seen standing inside the ferry as flames rage on from all sides. The fire on Evia, an island of forested mountains and canyons laced with small coves of crystalline water, began August 3 and cut across the popular summer destination from coast to coast while burning out of control for five days. Scores of homes and businesses have been destroyed, and thousands of residents and vacationers were evacuated.

Basic woodland management needs to be adopted and then problem dolved but i guess that solution is to simplistic.

So where is Tom Hanks and Rita’s safe house that they just flew in to a couple of days ago? Evidently there are parts not even smoky. Just wondering.

Any species supplied with limited space, will over-populate suffocating in their own pollution, this becomes the unfortunate promising demise towards any species that thrives.

The Mayan calendar did not represent the end of the world, it began to represent the end of the world as we know it, their civilization knew that in fact our species would reach a 'no-return point' of over-population.

The only resolution towards global warming is to take the same actions that you would against a plague of rodents.

Fire in Greece! No climate change it is government business work. Many people leaves from villages. The prine minister Mistotakis have shares in 'Terna Energy Company' this is wild energy park Electricity. Him and Mr Gerapetritis the general minister the womens father is president and the owner of the company. This is a reason fires is everywhere all of this areas because they want to make business. The situation is tragic the trees of Natura animal and bees burns. The environment in Greece has been destroyed.
