Update: the total area burned as of today is apparently up to around 15 million acres--an area nearly the size of the U.S. state of West Virginia. Some of the most extreme fire weather conditions of the entire event are still expected on Saturday... #AustraliaBurning

It's important for Americans to see the relative area sizes between U.S. and Australia: Australia: 2.97 million sq miles US mainland: 2.96 million sq miles Armed with this knowledge, Americans will better be able to understand how massive the Australian bushfire catastrophe is.pic.twitter.com/AD1rrT17l8

Where is this graphic from? I think it’s a map of ultra high temps vs bushfire. All of that purple area is not on fire atm.

12 million acres is 18,750 square miles, which is almost the size of San Bernardino county at 20,000 square miles (Largest county in the USA) and closing in on the size of West Virginia (24,000 square miles)

Wikipedia also tells me that New South Wales was Australia's largest state economy, so in addition to the biodiversity loss, I wonder how many farms are also being destroyed.

The greatest catastrophe of climate change to date. We must start the changes in how we treat our environment now and just hope there is time to correct the damage. In the sixties, several large oil companies had reports that said it was already too late.
