This is terrible news. Dunwich Heath is a beautiful place and an important habitat for rare species. I saw Dartford Warblers there earlier this year. And it is right next to the iconic RSPB Minsmere reserve. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2026...

UK wildfires don't compare (yet) with those in France and Spain, but they are happening in very densely populated areas It is only a matter of time before communities are obliterated and lives lost Anything to say Prime Minister? www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/ce...

We still think of wildfires as something that happen to other people, in other places. But the world is changing, and the wildfire in Suffolk is a symptom of that. This is how average annual temperature in Dunwich has changed since 1940, from here: era-explorer.climate.copernicus.eu?lat=52.28&ln...

The UK will be in drought until at least October. But there’s no such thing as a ‘new normal’ on a planet hurtling past 1.5C, on the way to 3C by 2050 & 4C in our children’s ‘lifetimes’. Without unprecedented societal change, we are in the beginning stages of a fairly rapid end.

It's not just Europe and North America trying to combat wildfires, in the UK wildfire numbers this year surge past 500, Suffolk burning as its residents and holiday makers are threatened. Badenoch and Farage still try to sell the lie there is no #climatechange, they don't care about us or the planet

Dunwich Heath is on fire. This is so upsetting. It's the National Trust area I visit the most. It was also the location for Springwatch. www.nationaltrust.org.uk/visit/suffol...

A major incident has been declared after a blaze engulfed a forest at a UK National Trust site three miles from Sizewell B nuclear power plant. Nuclear climate casualty. www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news...

Declaring a major incident at Dunwich Heath with 90 firefighters isn't a blip—it's the reality of half of England in drought. Calling this heatwave Britain’s "new normal" is dangerously passive for our climate readiness. Are we severely underestimating this crisis? 🚨 #ClimateCrisis

'The blaze on Dunwich Heath, which began shortly before 5.30pm on Wednesday, is spreading south-west in the direction of Sizewell B nuclear power station, about 2.5 miles away' 👀 www.telegraph.co.uk/gift/48dc4f5...
