point to the obvious main vector for #wildfires: #climateChange

but there’s some like @span theconversationes that go into more specifics: the abandonment of rural economies.
https://theconversation.com/fomentar-la-economia-rural-el-mejor-antidoto-contra-los-incendios-261935

and those rural areas have been controlled by the largest conservative party in the country, which is why their opposition have started to point fingers to them:

the #wildfires consuming #Spain are also consuming Portugal because the fires started in their shared Galicia region and it’s extended from there.
https://www.rtp.pt/noticias/pais/portugal-em-alerta-a-evolucao-da-resposta-a-incendios-ao-minuto_e1676063

apparently #Portugal doesn’t have firefighting airplanes to deal with the fires and has had to ask Marruecos #Morocco for help:

Been on my travels. A scene from Le Jardin Secret, hidden among the northern souks of #Marrakesh, #Morocco, #Turtle#Door#Wood

A bathing turtle, head and front legs bottom left, refracted through the opulent carved wood of a door next to the pond. Honey browns.
