Petros Kokkalis debates BLUE CARD on Climate change,Australia fires and other extreme weather events

Описание: The Australia bushfire crisis has cost the lives of 24 people, killed millions of animals and destroyed hundreds of houses. Petros Kokkalis EU debates Climate change, Australia fires and other extreme weather events. https://www.eudebates.tv/debates/eu-p...
EU parliament declares climate emergency and MEPs EUdebate climate change, Australian fires and other extreme wether events as great risks. The European parliament has declared a global “climate and environmental emergency” as it urged all EU countries to commit to net zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050.

Bushfires in Australia impact extensive areas, cause property damage, and have accounted for the deaths of 800 people in Australia since 1851. Major firestorms that result in severe loss of life are often named based on the day on which they occur, such as Ash Wednesday and Black Saturday. Some of the most intense, extensive, and deadly bushfires commonly occur during droughts and heat waves, such as the 2009 southeastern Australia heat wave, which precipitated the conditions during the 2009 Black Saturday bushfires in which 180 people died. Other major conflagrations include the 1851 Black Thursday bushfires, the 2006 December bushfires and the ongoing 2019–20 bushfires.

Bushfires have always been a part of Australia's ecology and environment. Some of the country's native flora have evolved to rely on bushfires for reproduction, and fire events have been an interwoven part of the ecology of the continent for thousands of years. Aboriginal Australians used to use fire to clear grasslands for hunting and to clear tracks through dense vegetation; however this was only in periods of high rainfall and in very small grassland zones bordering desert.

Fire management, logging and farming strategies changed significantly with the arrival of European settlers in the 19th century. This led to more frequent bushfires. Heatwaves and drought associated with global warming have exacerbated the problem.

Devastating Bushfires in Australia and other extreme weather events as a consequence of Climate Change.
Scientific skepticism is healthy. Scientists should always challenge themselves to improve their understanding. Yet this isn't what happens with climate change denial. Skeptics vigorously criticise any evidence that supports man-made global warming and yet embrace any argument, op-ed, blog or study that purports to refute global warming. This website gets skeptical about global warming skepticism.

Do their arguments have any scientific basis? What does the peer reviewed scientific literature say?
