The Great family of FEMTEC participates with sorrow in the human and environmental tragedy of the Australian colleagues and expresses to the Vice President Charles Davidson its solidarity.
FEMTEC confirms its activity in the field of environmental protection and sustainable development.
Ferocious bushfires have been sweeping across Australia since September, fuelled by record-breaking temperatures, drought and wind. The country has always experienced fires, but this season has been horrific.
A staggering 10 million hectares of land have been burned, at least 24 people have been killed and it has been reported that almost half a billion animals have perished.
The Copernicus Sentinel-2 mission has been used to image the fires. The Sentinel-2 satellites each carry just one instrument - a high-resolution multispectral imager with 13 spectral bands. The smoke, flames and burn scars can be seen clearly in the image shown here, which was captured on 31 December 2019. The large brownish areas depict burned vegetation and provide an idea of the size of the area affected by the fires here - the brown 'strip' running through the image has a width of approximately 50 km and stretches for at least 100 km along the Australian east coast.
