The forest fire in Australia

In 2019, there was a terrible forest fire in Australia. It was the biggest forest fire. It began in September and ended in February in the next year.

The fire caused damages. It destroyed about 8 million acres of forests and animals lost their home and many died. People who lived near the fire lost their homes.

Why is there forest fire every year in Australia? And why was the fire in 2019 the biggest one and why  couldn’t people stop it? In Australia, the weather is usually dry and hot in summer, so the trees become easier to burn. When there’s a storm, the trees might burn and become the forest fire. People can also cause the fire. When people go camping or have barbecue near the forest, it might cause the fire. There’s also a problem that there aren’t enough firefighters in Australia. People can’t stop the fire quickly.

The forest fire not only causes damages, but also pollutes the air. We should try not to use fire in forest or mountains in order to help reduce the forest fire.
