The incident in Canada in 2021 was interesting/troubling because they were already in the news here for breaking the national temperature record for 3 consecutive days in a row. And then the last day the whole town burned down.
They already were, but it's gotten worse. And it will get worse I guess, given the pathetic response from the government and most of the political class.

So several places on earth have now gotten so hot, they’ve literally burst into flames. And people still deny climate change. 🤦♂️

I didn't know France and Spain were prone to wildfires.
