I hope all the fireys over East get some relief in the next few days. Forecast isn’t good. Widespread loss of property is inevitable, let’s all pray that we don’t see any more loss of life.
To all the volunteers fighting fires day after day - you are true Australian heroes.
Would’ve been nice to see the PM respond with a bit more compassion and tackle the reason for these awful droughts and now fires as bad as we’ve ever seen bit more head on.
He’ll give you tax cuts alright...but they mean nothing when you lose ******* everything in fires.
I hate people bringing up climate change when there’s a disaster happening this very moment. But look climate change is real, this will only get worse. I hope it’s not too late..but no matter what we have to at least try and tackle this issue more responsibly.
There’s also massive floods in Indonesia. Lives lost there too I’m fairly sure.
The world isn’t just at war with each other, we’re also fighting to survive the climate.
Rant over. Just makes me angry people/politicians can’t see the obvious. I’m not even a greeny and it makes me sick.
And unfortunately even if we did this ten years ago there is no difference today because it's a global thing and us being green is no different to us being proud of being in the non peeing end of the pool when the other swimmers are still going for it. We end up swimming in it anyway.We should have eliminated fossil fuels, coal etc by now.
I think that is a weak argument. Leadership is about being the first to move towards a solution. Build a toilet for people to use would be the example. Measure and inform people about the quantity of pee in their swimming pool. Inform people of the health issues about peeing in the pool (if there are any), would be another.And unfortunately even if we did this ten years ago there is no difference today because it's a global thing and us being green is no different to us being proud of being in the non peeing end of the pool when the other swimmers are still going for it.

Or we could put our energy into developing per filtration systems that will clean the whole pool, since that is all we can control.I think that is a weak argument.

Filtration for pools already does that. A little pee in swimming pools is a non issue, possibly good for the gut biome.Or we could put our energy into developing per filtration systems that will clean the whole pool, since that is all we can control.

Is that a per capita thing? We are also streaks ahead on renewable power per capita.It’s a global thing, but Australia disproportionately produces more greenhouse gases than other nations, and exports more greenhouse producing products than anyone else, after Russia and Saudi Arabia.
I don’t get the analogy. Peeing in a pool never killed anyone. These extremes of weather due to our climate changing do.And unfortunately even if we did this ten years ago there is no difference today because it's a global thing and us being green is no different to us being proud of being in the non peeing end of the pool when the other swimmers are still going for it.

It will be ok, the religious discrimination acts final draft was pushed through yesterday .
Nobody noticed because most of Oz is on fire.
Australia being destroyed by climate change and fire is second on the agenda to getting this religious dogma through. Go figure? Who the hell voted these knobs in?
My last post on this board.
Thanks. For your censorship Taylor.
Thank youWe'll keep the politics to the board for that on bigfooty so footy can be the escape from the world.

I enjoy Clem's posting too, but I don't come onto BF to have politics preached to me by Clem or anyone else. If I want to talk politics I'll go to my One Nation discussion forumI’m confused about what a “Non-Freo Nonchalance “ thread is for?
And I definitely want Clem posting here.
