Silhouettes of firefighters tackling a wildfire are pictured at Veiga village in Agueda, Aveiro on September 17, 2024. Thousands of firefighters battled wildfires in Portugal that have killed seven people and burnt more land in a matter of days than the rest of the summer combined. Raging since the weekend before worsening on September 16, the blazes have also left at least 40 people injured, including 33 firefighters, according to the latest figures from the authorities. Scientists say that fossil fuel emissions are worsening the length, frequency and intensity of heatwaves across the world. The rising temperatures are leading to longer wildfire seasons and increasing the area burnt in the flames, according to the United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change.
