Incendi California Oregon e Washington
Negli ultimi giorni gli stati dell’Oregon, Washington e California in USA sono sotto assedio delle decine di incendi e roghi scoppiati su tutta la West Coast. Secondo gli esperti migliaia di ettari di terra sono bruciati in sole 24h, colorando i cieli dei tre stati a colorarsi di Rosso e Arancione con un risultato decisamente da brivido e con sfumature apocalittiche.
L’ex presidente Barack Obama ha così commentato:
“Gli incendi lungo la costa ovest sono solo l’ultimo esempio del vero modo in cui il cambiamento climatico sta cambiando le nostre comunità. La protezione del pianeta è in gioco anche sulla scheda elettorale. Vota come se la tua vita dipendesse da questo perché è così”.
The fires across the West Coast are just the latest examples of the very real ways our changing climate is changing our communities. Protecting our planet is on the ballot. Vote like your life depends on it—because it does. pic.twitter.com/gKGegXWxQu
