Short haul flights are horrendous for the environment. They cause climate change which causes wildfires.

So people are complaining about the consequences of their actions, but not sparing much of a thought for the people whose homes and livelihoods are burning.

Why is this being covered as something that's divorced from climate change and only from a holiday maker's perspective?

I'm sure it's horrible being stuck out there but...

It's hardly a surprise that British media is concerned about something that's affecting many British citizens.

I don't know what news you've been reading but the news coverage and articles I've seen/read have referenced climate change. I've read numerous articles on it since the latest heatwaves.

The coverage in the media here is all about what gets the most clicks - that will be stories about British people in 'Holiday Hell'.
