The EU's adaptation framework offers an illusion of preparation. Laying out plans for a 3°C drift average does not make it survivable. But it makes it seem so. 🧵 Europe is not even preparing for what happened recently! In the pine plantations west of Bordeaux, firefighters met the first pyrocumulonimbus France has ever seen. There was the largest firefighting mobilisation in EU history, and the destruction broke records anyway: https://civil-protection-humanitarian-aid.ec.europa.eu/news-stories/news/eu-deploys-largest-ever-wildfire-response-2026-summer-2026-06-02_en #climatePolicy #adaptation #megafires #wildfires #plantations #forestry #climateDrift #climateChange #firefighting #firefighters #France #EUPol #policy
