The Summer Ahead: What you need to know about this bushfire season

July 2023 was Earth's hottest month on record - almost all of Australia was 2-6°C above average temperatures.

Australia has battled with bushfire seasons since 1970, with more than 2,000 homes having been destroyed in three of it’s biggest fire seasons, 1982-1983, 2008-2009 and 2019-2020.

In this episode of the Briefing, we're joined by Greg Mullins, former Commissioner of Fire and Rescue New South Wales, a Climate Councillor with the Climate Council and a founding member of Emergency Leaders for Climate Action.

Following on from a horror summer in Europe, what will this year's bushfire season look like?
