The coast in #Croatia had a devastating fire last night. It's been burning all around #Europe, and it hasn't rained in the #Netherlands in months. This needs to be a wakeup call. This summer. Otherwise this is just the beginning. Fires, relentless heat, no water. Food shortages. #ClimateDisaster
Huge fire burning at night over the town of Omiš.

Throwback to when a TV station in Iceland accidentally aired an episode of Teletubbies with subtitles from the Sopranos 👌🏼
