It's 200 times when solar panels are "mentioned" in the fire report.

Heartbreaking stuff in his previous project on homelessness in the UK. I spoke at the opening of the touring exhibition a couple of years ago, and i've arranged for it to come to Leeds through work next year. No amount of political whitewash can cover these.

“Next year, we will discover what happens when you throw a naturally occurring phenomena on top of self-inflicted, anthropogenic climate change. Despite last year being the third warmest year on record, it may have been kept “cool” by La Niña. But now El Niño has arrived.”
This was one of the bleakest articles I've ever had to write. For as bad as this year's weather has been, El Niño will ensure that next year is worse. www.prospectmagazine.co.uk/world/enviro...
Call this a hot summer? This phenomenon explains why next year may be worse
