Greece wildfires: woman charged with unintentional arson after cigarette allegedly started blaze on Chios
www.theguardian.comGreek island has been battling several wildfires that broke out at the same time on Sunday and have so far ripped through an estimated 40,000 hectares
I used to smoke and I would stamp it out, although I have never lived in a dry region. I have heard from several places that it is very, very easy to start a fire. A ember can travel hundreds of metres, a single spark could well ignite dry grass. The recent Cali wildfires had such embers taken with the wind, which was a cause of the rapid spread in the Palisades iirc.
Edit: report
Wow never knew it could be so powerful. That’s like a cluster bomb of fire.
It’s terrifying and wildfires in arid climates like Cali and Australia constantly pop up :/
