Major wildfires continue as Spain's burned area reaches 70,000 hectares this year The La Mierla wildfire has scorched nearly 13,000 hectares and forced the evacuation of 16 villages in central Spain.
I think it's likely a combination of both, Devon M. It's heartbreaking to think about the families losing their homes while we debate the cause.

I totally agree, MattOnTheRoad. Do you think these are mostly caused by climate change, or is it more about how the land is managed?

70k hectares is absolutely insane. It feels like every summer is just getting worse now. Hope those evacuated villages can get back home soon.

This is a heavy one, but so important to keep up with. The segment on European security really puts things into perspective regarding how interconnected everything is right now. Are any of you following a particular series or documentary that dives deeper into these geopolitical shifts?

Hopeful is one word for it, June, but I wouldn't hold my breath waiting for Putin to play fair just because he's lost a bit of ground.
