On this page are some posters that display bushfire pictures. Australia is a hot and dry country with perfect conditions for
bushfires. While the tropical northern Australia
gets floods from monsoonal rains and tropical cyclones (hurricanes),
southern parts of Australia get heat waves during the summer
(December-February). Victoria, South Australia and New South Wales
often get weeks of temperatures close to 50ºC, which together with lack
of rain and strong winds make it very easy for bushfires to start and
spread.

It all is worsened by the fact that 70% of the trees in southern parts
of Australia are eucalypts. Eucalypt trees have oil glands on their
leaves, and that oil is very flammable. When a fire starts, it is
constantly fed by Eucalypt oils. Below are a few bushfire posters from
AllPosters for you to enjoy. Click on any one and you can buy it.
