Portugal is on Fire!!!
After the big fire in Pedrogão Grande during the 18-06-17, where approximately 60 people died, Portugal has been burning on and on!
During these last weeks, I only see the smoke of fires around me!

I don't know what's going on, but this is not normal! I just hope this ends!
This is truelly awful 😐
Yes, it is! And I believe that's more to come! :/
ooooooooooooo where is fire service, they should come and calm Portugal down before it explode
Well, the fire service is all over Portugal, and we are also having some help from Spain and France with airplanes! It's a lot of "work" for a few men.
This needs to be taken higher, I had no idea that such was happening in the country, could this be a chance for the steem crew to step in?
I know it might not affect the city of lisbon, but still any little help is appreciated in these cases. . .
These fire cases are a bit complex, but the people are very humble and we help each other, what we do is give water and food to the firefighters while they fight the flames, the government is also helping to rebuild some houses Who were affected by the fires, the steemit crew is always welcome to help, bring ideas to fight against fires, or even for fire prevention, which we (government) accept, I hope!
Thank you for your concern!
