El fuego que no se detiene: España lucha contra llamas que arrasan montañas

The Unstoppable Fire: Spain Battles Flames Ravaging Mountains Paco Ramírez, Minister of Forest Management and Rural Affairs, analyzes the concern over the magnitude and complexity of the Jarilla fire in the province of Cáceres, the largest forest fire recorded in Extremadura, with more than 16,000 hectares affected and a perimeter of 150 km. Ramírez describes how the terrain and the intensity of the wind are hindering firefighting efforts, noting that high mountain terrain requires not only ground resources but also strong air support. The minister points out that, although there have been other fires in Extremadura, the vast majority of the area affected this year corresponds to Jarilla. He explains that many fires are intentionally set by people, although in this particular case the origin was a lightning strike during a storm with more than 1,000 electrical discharges. He adds that the combination of high temperatures, low nighttime humidity, and variable winds has complicated the firefighting efforts. Regarding the influence of climate change and the environmental agenda, Ramírez considers it premature to attribute the fires directly to these factors, emphasizing that the debate on forest management and the environment needs to be more measured. He also mentions that rural depopulation and some environmental restrictions hinder the monitoring and management of the countryside. With respect to human and material resources, he assures that Extremadura has highly qualified personnel and that rotations are in place to address the emergency. He acknowledges the help from other autonomous communities and the government, although he criticizes its delayed arrival, highlighting that solidarity between regions has been fundamental. #fire #spain #extremadura #wildfire #flames #climatechange #jarilla #currentaffairs #news #businesstv If you want to join the Business TV Academy, here's the link:    / @negociostv   Follow us live ➡️ https://bit.ly/2Ts9V3p Subscribe to our channel: https://bit.ly/3jsMzp2 Subscribe to our second channel, morebusiness: Visit Business TV https://bit.ly/2Ts9V3p More Business TV videos:    / @negociostv   Follow us on Telegram: https://t.me/negociostv Follow us on Instagram: https://bit.ly/3oytWnd Twitter: https://bit.ly/3jz6Lpt Facebook: https://bit.ly/3e3kIuy 🔞Disclaimer: All information, materials, and/or content included in this program is for informational and educational purposes only.
