As Australia battles, unprecedented bushfires and a record-breaking heatwave, netizens from all over the world are in solidarity to '#PrayForAustralia'. The recent escalations in the raging fires, Auckland turning orange, glaciers covered in ashes, and increasing death toll of both humans and animals have fueled the talks about how 'climate change is real'. The people have taken over social media to voice their criticism and grief over the loss of life and infrastructure in the island continent.
While people making memes about the WW3, Australia is suffering the biggest fire ever happened
