" Last Year was quite high, at about just over 3,000 hectares Burned , " Mr Brehaut told The Bbc . The Shelburne County fire, by comparison, is More Than five times that size.

The Cycle of extreme and long-lasting heat caused by Climate Change draws more and more moisture out of the ground and vegetation, resulting in conditions ripe for wildfires.
