At least 26 people have died and more than 2,000 homes have been destroyed in the unprecedented blazes.

SYDNEY – Tens of thousands of Australians rallied across the country Friday calling on the conservative government to tackle global warming and cut back on fossil fuels, as deadly climate-fuelled bushfires burned out of control."The lives that have been lost have been caused by our inaction," protester Monty Oldroyd told AFP.

There has been increasing anger over the cause of the fires, with some Australians accusing Scott Morrison's government of failing to act on climate change and supporting coal mining that has contributed to global warming. The severe fire conditions have been fuelled by a prolonged drought and worsened by climate change, with experts warning that such massive blazes were becoming more frequent and intense.
