Global wildfire victim count
The International Meteorological Organization "WMO" indicates that wildfires cause approximately 100,000 deaths annually from 2010 to 2018, due to the buildup of toxic smoke resulting from them. It confirmed that the number of fires has tripled over the past thirty years, leading to a significant increase in air pollution and the risk of respiratory diseases and other related illnesses. The current estimate suggests that the actual number might be higher than previous projections, although there are no precise statistics. The report highlights the importance of coordinating efforts to reduce fire crises and their impact on global health.
