An inquiry into the recent massive bushfire disaster in Australia has found the country should expect "worse" in the years to come, BBC reports.
As BBC says, the review - which looked at New South Wales (NSW), the worst-hit state - made sweeping proposals aimed at better preparing for future fire seasons.
The fires began last August and burned for months, killing 33 people nationally and scorching vast areas.
The NSW state government said it would adopt the inquiry's 76 recommendations.
The "extreme and extremely unusual" bushfires destroyed 2,476 houses and 5.5 million hectares of land in that state alone, BBC says.
The main causes were a drought which had made the land extremely dry and ready to burn, hot and windy weather, and climate change.
NSW Premier Gladys Berejiklian said on Tuesday: "The next fire season is already upon us."An inquiry into the recent massive bushfire disaster in Australia has found the country should expect "worse" in the years to come, BBC reports.
