Sad to see fires on the island again

 

[jimmiz]

the biggest in the history of Ibiza...in one of the most beautiful area of Ibiza,in places i love to go each year,i feel so sad

 

[WeLuvIbiza]

Finger pointing is not big or grown up, but the authorities are quite right to claim the bee-keeper was negligent.

What a dreadful start to the season for the island, lets hope and pray for no more of these incidents

 

[jimmiz]

the fire zone represent 3% of the totallity of Ibiza...

 

[WeLuvIbiza]

I hope the authorities can setup some kind of fund to help with the costs of replanting and trying to expedite the recovery of the damaged land. Obviously trees cannot be forced to grow but there must be a big cost involved in the whole incident Surely anyone entering or leaving the island would throw in a few euros.

what we'd give for a downpour right now
