One of the main consequences of climate change is extreme weather conditions that cause droughts, aridity, torrential rains, cyclones, and storms. The author’s twenty- year experience as a professional firefighter also supports that the number of interventions increased due to extreme weather conditions. The number of fires decreased; however, technical rescues (damages caused mainly by storms and water) show an increasing trend in Hungary. The author argues that to perform effective interventions in the future, it is necessary to analyse and examine the methodology of the interventions.
