How should Spain respond to climate change?

The climate emergency is not the only problem, writes political scientist Astrid Barrio in El Periódico de Catalunya:

“Although climate change is increasing the danger, scale and speed of the fires, it is not their only cause. Rural exodus, changes in the way land is used, negligence and deliberate fires — 31 arrests have been made since 1 June and 85 people are under investigation — also play a role. … If we really want a state pact for preventing and fighting fires, we need a multi-causal perspective that incorporates those who, quite rightly, question whether only the climate emergency is to blame for the fires.”
