💨 Abstract

Greece is preparing for a record number of wildfires this year, as climate change has made weather more extreme and Greece's summers hotter and drier. Last August, a woman died and 10,000 hectares were burned in a wildfire that reached Athens. This year, 18,000 firefighters will be available, along with thousands of volunteers, and new equipment like drones and aircraft.
