Ireland Prepares for Wildfires | Ireland News

Ireland’s Taoiseach Micheál Martin is sounding the alarm on wildfires, warning that recent devastating blazes in Europe are a stark wake-up call. With fires already flaring across Ireland this summer, Martin plans a major cross-agency review by August’s end — involving government, local councils, and Coillte — to strengthen preparedness and resilience against climate threats like extreme heat, flooding, and disrupted food production. He’s calling for proactive adaptation, while agriculture officials stress personal responsibility: no disposable barbecues in dry zones, and urgent financial support for farmers to prevent land abandonment and fuel future fires.
