At least 480 million mammals, birds and reptiles are likely to have died in the state alone since September. Devastating.

The climate and extinction crises are inextricably linked. Climate isn’t just causing extreme shifts in weather, it’s causing entire eco- and wild systems to collapse. https://t.co/XllMTWDDWt— Sierra Club (@SierraClub) January 4, 2020
Can Australia ever be the same again? Op ed in @nytopinion documents 14.5 million acres burned, 6 times size of area of 2019 Amazonia fires; human death toll rising; half billion native animals estimated to have died. Catastrophic. @AMacGlac @david_ritter https://t.co/LGiTid6zeu— Helen Clark (@HelenClarkNZ) January 5, 2020
