The Department of Home Affairs says Australian bushfires will become more severe due to climate change. Officials will front a Senate Inquiry into the country's 'Black Summer' today to discuss preparation and planning. Experts will warn future seasons will begin earlier, last longer and have worsening impacts on communities. The 'Black Summer' fires killed 33 people, destroyed more than 3000 homes and razed almost 13 million hectares. Image: News Corp Australia Read More Our Apps
