FULL TITLE: Climate change could lead to raging infernos throughout Europe: Scientists predict 200% rise in forest fires by 2090.
Climate change is expected to contribute to a 'dramatic increase' in forest fires in Europe, according to a new study.
The research claims that increased temperatures and longer droughts will create a 200 per cent increase in raging forest infernos by 2090.
However, preventive fires could keep that increase to below 50 per cent, the Austrian scientists claim.

Wait a minute. What about all the monsoons and torrential rains that Climate Change is supposed to cause????
Are we going to be living in a world where you have a monsoon in one area and then you go a couple miles down the road and have drought and raging forest fires?????

How can we have forest fires when the evil Westerners are defoliating all the trees?

I’d like to speak to the moron who thinks he/she can prove this. They can’t even get tomorrow’s weather right. We had an 80% chance of rain today where I live. We didn’t get a drop. That 20% chance of no rain won.

These eco-nut tyrants are insane. MY model predicts that eco-nuts will commit suicide in ever-increasing numbers until there are no more of these mentally ill individuals polluting the earth (by 2068).

The nice thing about making predictions seventy-five years in advance is that no one currently alive will be around to see what happens.
How about making some predictions five years in advance?

Forest fires are usually man made.

total nonsense....I predict, with virtually the same authority (none) that forest fires will be totally controlled by Smokey Bear by 2020.

Much bigger chance of forest fires being set by Muslim terrorist infiltrators, but then there aren’t any of those, now, are there?
