The risk of wildfires in Finland is increasing, as climate change leads to drier and warmer summers. As of November 2024, forest fires burned 124 hectares of land in the Nordic country. This fell short in comparison to the 2,558 hectares lost in 2021, which was by far the largest figure recorded during the reporting period.
