GeogRamblings video on the Australian Bushfire Season 2019-20

A rather excellent new video from the Geogramblings blog, with Kit Rackley talking about the bushfires in Australia and the extent to which climate change may have been to blame. Kit unpicks the science and includes links through to all the reports, videos and other material that went into the planning of the video.



The first 'Geogramblings' blog video focuses on the recent bushfires in Australia. But can they be attributed to climate change? How far has the science of climate change attribution come along?
