Many fires are still uncontained. In New South Wales blazes have created a fire front that, if put into a straight line, would stretch from Sydney, across the Indian Ocean, and into Afghanistan. These fires have destroyed more than twice the area burned in the Amazon’s rainforests in 2019. The smoke plume is currently about 1.3 billion acres, or half the size of Europe, and is drifting eastwards across the earth polluting the air of neighbouring countries.
