被烧毁的BC省Lytton小镇死一般的寂静，居民站在废墟周边在伤痛中无法恢复，然而BC山火没有停止，越烧越猛。

#Lytton Burned, People Died. Who Should Pay?

BC needs a serious plan for the next heat wave. And oil and gas firms need to take responsibility, an advocate says.http://t.co/DydwQRvMkl @TheTyee #wildfires #lyttonfire #climatechange #heatdome #ethoslifestyle

社交媒体上，看到民众发出的晚上的大火移动速度竟然，瞬间跨国高速和河流吞没民众的房屋让人胆战心惊

The big stick fire went absolutely nuts last night. It overran a family member's home, jumped highway 20 and the McClinchy river and then moved another 10 km beyond that. #BCWildfire #BCWildfires

BC全省今年已经录得1021宗山火，每年平均录得1300宗。

BC火山服务处几乎每天都会对新的地区发出紧急疏散令：

The Regional District of Bulkley-Nechako, Yekooche First Nation, Tl’azt’en Nation, and BC Parks have issued an Evacuation Order for the Camsell Lake area due to increased wildfire growth and activity. This order is effective as of 20:30 (PDT) on July 13, 2021. pic.twitter.com/2aMbIh0lec

在过去24小时内，在Kamloops Lake以北的Sparks Lake山火的火势蔓延，令附近居民的生命安全受到威胁，有再多110户房屋须紧急疏散。

There are 25 "wildfires of note" around the province. The biggest one is the Sparks Lake Fire, near Kamloops. It's now about 25k from the city limits. We will have the latest on @NEWS1130.

Sparks Lake的大火于6月28日被发现，现仍被列为失控状态。这片湖周围山火面积已扩大至超过4万公顷，这个也是仍未受控山火之一。

而今天地方政府发出新疏散令，至今170户受影响必须撤离，另外585户获发疏散警示，预备随时撤离。

消防部门称，该处的大火周一冲击了防火线，导致要召唤额外的空中支援。

10架直升机、125名消防员及58件重型装备已被送往现场协助灭火，该地区还有6名人员负责保护重要设施。

这些救火救灾人员，没日没夜的奔波真是特别辛苦

然而，灾害的频率和严重程度都在增加。

急救人员需要更安全、更智能和更有效的工具。

Disasters are increasing in frequency and severity.
