El fuego devora bosques enteros en el oeste de Canadá

Nada lograr frenar el avance de los incendios que devoran numerosos bosques en la provincia de Columbia Británica, en el oeste de Canadá.

Más de 3.000 bomberos batallan casi sin descanso contra el fuego en los alrededores de William Lake. Atizadas por el viento, las llamas se han extendido por numerosos lugares: hay más de un centenar de focos activos y las autoridades, que hace diez días decretaron el estado de emergencia, han ordenado nuevas evacuaciones. Casi 40.000 personas han tenido que abandonar sus hogares en la última semana:

- “Esas llamas tienen como diez metros de altura. Pensé que esta vez no iba a salir con vida, porque me tenían rodeado”, contaba con alivio y miedo un superviviente.

Desde principios de abril, han ardido más de 130.000 hectáreas de bosque en Columbia Británica . El pasado fin de semana, un helicóptero que trabajaba en las labores de extinción sufrió un accidente, aunque el piloto logró salvar la vida.

In the world there are millions of forests. Some are close to urban centers, others in remote and inaccessible places, but they all fulfill a key role: maintain the balance of the planet. They are literally the lung of the earth. When talking about a new forest, the first thing that comes to mind is usually reforestation, a recent plantation or the recovery of an area razed by fire. But this discovery is on another way. It is not a forest sown recently. It is an old forest, which was there for thousands of years, buried under the ice. And now, with the thaw caused by global warming, he has emerged again.
