The impact of the devastating bushfires on Australias tourism industry is expected to cost the industry hundreds of millions of dollars while the images of smoke and fire carried worldwide are expected to be a deterrent to international visitors.

Medical bills from the fires and smoke haze could also run into the hundreds of millions. Spotting can occur up to 30km downwind from the fire front. 50000 years ago Australian Aboriginals used fire stick farming as a way to hunt large animals.

Thunderstorms generated by the Australian bushfires are very likely to have pumped as much smoke into the stratosphere as a volcanic eruption. The fire season has lengthened so substantially that it has already reduced opportunities for fuel reduction burning. The arsonists were responsible for about 50 of the bushfires.

But even from far away you can make an impact by donating to causes fighting the Australian wildfires. The costs of fighting fires are increasing. This infographic explains how climate change influences bushfires in four ways.

Equipped with torches humans burned forests to drive out trap and kill things to eat. Accidents deliberate acts of arson burning of debris and fireworks are as well other substantial causes of wildfires. There is a threshold wind speed of around 12 to 15kmh which makes a significant difference in the behaviour of bushfires in the open.

While the fires rage on it is projected that more damage will be done. Australia relies on resource sharing arrangements between countries and states and territories within Australia. A longer fire season.
