To demonstrate the lethal speed at which the Texan wildfires are spreading, the Texas Parks & Wildlife Department have released footage of the wildfire consuming the 6 000 acre Bastrop State Park – 84% of which has been burnt down as of today, in spite of firefighters’ efforts to save a number of historic Civilian Conservation Corps cabins.
About 14 000 square kilometres have been scorched since December – and in fact, six of the ten largest wildfires in Texan history have occurred in 2011, says the Texas Forest Service.
So, y’know. Don’t burn junk stupidly.
