Australia Wildfires Burn 865K Acres, Destroy 300 Buildings

Hotter temperatures, longer droughts and declining rainfall are creating catastrophic conditions that fuel megafires and deadly fire-generated thunderstorms. The evidence is undeniable: nine of Australia's hottest years have occurred since 2005, fire seasons are lengthening and millions now live in harm's way.
