Suffolk’s Reform-UK-led county council has been warned that wildfires ravaging Dunwich Heath are a “timely reminder” of the climate crisis after the administration moved to revoke the area’s climate emergency declaration.
Firefighters have spent three days battling a wildfire across the Dunwich Heath nature reserve in Suffolk, one of the UK’s most important coastal heathland landscapes. Wildlife experts have estimated it could take “more than a decade” to recover the “decimated” heathland known for its biodiversity.
