10 point plan for the next day in Attica The announcement was made at a meeting between the Prime Minister and the Co-competent Ministers, Regions and Municipalities of the recently fire-affected areas in Bendeley.
After the meeting, Kyriakos Mitsotakis said “I would like to once again warmly thank all those who were on the ground during the most difficult and huge fire: all the employees of the state apparatus, all the employees of the local administration, the volunteers who mobilized unprecedentedly.
I believe everyone tried and did their bestBut we must not hide behind any temporary impressions. We faced a difficult fire to deal with, the only major fire to datea – I believe – this summer, it caused a lot of environmental damage and destroyed a lot of property. What happened to the fire is something that will be debated and studied, as no fire escaped and was immediately brought under control.
And he underlined: “This year we have faced more than 4,000 fires, many of them in Attica. Unfortunately, this was the only fire that escapedDespite the fact that correctness was adopted in this fire, it was, as in many other fires, the doctrine of a very rapid first attack. However, for reasons to be analyzed, this fire escaped, had very special characteristics, moved at a very high speed and caused the damage we all know today.”
“I would like to put a small positive footnote in this very negative picture that you all have the opportunity to see. The tall forest burned in this fire was relatively sparse In relation to other fires in Attica. The burn is not too intense, which will facilitate the natural regeneration process. Also soil morphology is a function of soil retention activities and The anti-corrosion interventions to be made need not be very extensive – I am very careful with my words – in relation to other fires we have faced in Attica in the past,” he said.
“The government now has a tried and tested state aid framework at its disposal, and our need is to get it up and running quickly. We can do that. Lost property is a tragedy for the owner. “We have the capacity to help victims get back on their feet, and we can do it quickly based on the numbers we have,” he asserted.
“Common thing Preventive interventions have a real footprintTarget, in forests and near urban fabric. Interventions through the anti-Nero program were important, but not all of Attica’s forests could be destroyed. The new forest management plan is very important,” he said.
“Did we do everything perfectly? No but…”
He continued: “It’s a huge win and a collective achievement, it’s become commonplace and I want to welcome it. We’re all in this together and everyone knows they have to do their own work on climate change.”
“I would like to specifically mention the issue of land clearing. We attempted something that had never been done before in the history of the country. I believe this is undoubtedly a huge success and collective achievement. Why do I say collective success? Because I think it’s become more commonplace now – and it’s something that I want to welcome, because despite the sadness, the rage, the anger, the natural disasters – we realize that we’re all in this together. Do their part to tackle the climate crisis now upon us.
Did we do everything right in cleaning? Obviously not, we did it the first time. But it’s a big win and we need to build on it. Will we be more prepared next year to facilitate municipalities to remove the branches and grass we have cleared? Obviously we will be.
But she is one A great success of collective action, If we want to protect our own property first, we should all take advantage of it.
See Dion’s example. It was very interesting. As you can see from the satellite, we have suffered almost minimal damage to the areas that we have practically cleared and the fires have almost stopped.
So, this is the policy we follow. We are already thinking about what to do next year. And this is a policy where we will need more support from local communities.”
In conclusion he said: “We have proven to be sustainable. We are here to heal wounds, learn from our mistakes, and capitalize on important advances made. I understand the need for political conflict. We are not immune to toxicity and polarizationIt does not apply to citizens’ problems. However, because the climate crisis is a reality and multi-faceted, the challenges to finding people with knowledge and expertise are enormous.”
