He explains that Europe’s wildfire crisis stems not from the fires themselves but from ecological degradation and governance shortcomings. Held notes that fires are not unforeseeable natural events; scientific warnings about climate change’s severe impacts have persisted for decades. He argues that the crisis offers a chance to fundamentally reassess humanity’s relationship with forests and landscapes.
