Wildfires in Europe Cost Nearly Three Billion Euros
Damage from wildfires in several European countries has already reached nearly three billion euros, with costs still not finalized.
According to a report, the total damage from wildfires in Spain, France, Portugal, and Greece has already reached nearly three billion euros. This cost estimate is considered conservative, indicating that the actual damages may be even higher.
Austria appears to have been spared from the wildfires so far. However, it is noted that with climate change, the risk of wildfires is increasing in this country as well. The effects of climate change could also become more noticeable in Austria in the future.
