Question: Why are all the fires happening in Australia?

Jason Mc Guire answered on 19 Nov 2019:

Australia gets really hot and really dry in the summer, every year it seems to get hotter and drier. Australia had alot of natural woodlands and once something catches fire, its quickly goes out of control and its spreads really really quick! The first spark can come from overhead wires arcing, lightning, campfires, etc. It’s sad when it took soo long for the woodlands to develop but they are quickly burned out.
