"An inquiry into the recent massive bushfire disaster in Australia has found the country should expect "worse" in the years to come.
The review - which looked at New South Wales (NSW), the worst-hit state - made sweeping proposals aimed at better preparing for future fire seasons.
The blazes began last August and burned for months, killing 33 people nationally and scorching vast areas.
The NSW state government said it would adopt the inquiry's 76 recommendations."

You've been cautioned... what you do about it is 'your baby'.

I think it is actually Tom suffering from reversed polarity.

I doubt the people and animals fleeing the Australia fire had time to stop and demand historical records that could have proved the fire was not real. Australia is upside down in more ways than one.

Yes, like I said we have the same politics in Australia.

We get told the bushfires (and floods) are due to climate change. The people making those climate aren't too keen to discuss the past bushfire and flood records, as it tends to clash with their claims that the floods and fires are unprecedented.

Some smoulder for a couple of years, and others don't quite make it... so, they don't always endure! I just thought of another thing; Maybe conditions are changing, climate wise?

...and I understand the fiddlers in Rome were well received, too.

Where did I claim the fires weren't real? The fires were real. As were these recent floods. As were the fires and floods in the past.

dik,

To be fair, what is happening in Oz is note solely the consequence of historical activity there. It is one of the places that is more extremely affected, starting from a marginal pre-AGW reference point.

Tomfh,

Ask a friend or family member to locate your LITERALIST ON-OFF switch and set it to OFF for a few hours a day. That way you and all of us can get some relief.

Maybe largely?

No you do not. I read just enough about Oz to know that politics there are as toxic as the bushfires are hot.

 

[dik]

brims... you have to get away from that. It's not conducive to anything.

Sorry dik,

I don't have full control over my bullsh!t detector. I sincerely wish I did.

Unsurprising that you consider First Dog a reliable source. I couldn't but help notice that you adhere to the Guardian's language prescriptions; "Global Heating", etc.

 

[hokie66]

No answers to my request for solutions? I thought so.

 

[Guest102023]

The Guardian tells me what to do and how to speak, yes!
It was either that or one of Rupert Murdoch's rags. You know, the guy who practically handpicks your PMs?

"If you don't have time to do the job right the first time, when are you going to find time to repair it?"

 

[dik]

I don't have one, and I don't know where climate change will 'end up'. Just because I don't have a solution, doesn't mean it's not a problem.

brims... I actually thought the Guardian was a fairly decent paper.

Yeah, your BS beepers go off in the face of any information which clashes with the narrative. Data which shows that floods and fires aren't unprecedented? *BEEP BEEP BEEP. MISINFORMATION ALERT*.
