Left winger promotes extreme left wing policy.... news at 11.
fu** me.
The fact a portion of our society thinks an obvious economic plan such as spending money = jobs, or that action on climate change requires policy making by the government is “left wing” is why the world is f’ed.
Fear and labels over rational application.
Maybe Scotty from Marketing should've paid more attention to the briefing about Kangaroo Island before he went there.
Might've stopped him from turning up and saying thank God there's been no loss of life, after two people died.
* me, there's still a portion of our society that think Keynsian theory and printing money is the answer.

South Australia sweats it out through driest year on record in 2019

South Australia suffered its driest year on record during 2019, the Bureau of Meteorology (BOM) says, with rainfall down 65 per cent as mean temperatures rose 1.45 degrees Celsius higher than the long-term average.
Releasing the 2019 Annual Climate Statement today, BOM head of climate monitoring Karl Braganza said every month apart from August endured above-average temperatures in SA, while there was a record dry spell between January and April.
"It was very dry, the driest year on record, with average rainfalls of about 80 millimetres [down 65 per cent from the long-term average]," he said. The bureau said 2019 was South Australia's second hottest year on record.
Adelaide endured its hottest day on record on January 24 when it reached 46.6C, beating the 46.1C recorded in 1939.

Gotta be a marketing opportunity for the club.Imagine how dry it would have been if there had been no Port home games
What has that got to do with labelling any idea like the government addressing climate change as “left wing” and spending money to create jobs again as “left wing” (especially in the context of addressing concerns that addressing climate change might cost jobs which is the common catch cry of fear mongers)
In the case of climate change its ******* moronic and stopping those of us that want to have a planet beyond tomorrow from getting anything done about it.
In the case of economics, again, the idea that anything other than the status quo (which obviously doesn’t work too well) is the thoughts of radicals is harmful and is again why we struggle to make any meaningful change.
Not arguing against action against climate change. But do you understand the relationship with increasing government debt (ie selling government bonds) and also printing more money?
Quantitative Easing the last decade or so, shows electronic money does come out of thin air.Only then it’s poor fiscal management because money doesn’t come out of “thin” air, but all the times that money does come out of thin air every day because “reasons” it’s no biggie.
So Harry and Meggan stepping back from royal duties and becoming financially independent. Can you give back privilege?

Star Wars movies are like the years we've been coached by Hinkley. The first two were pretty good and the rest have been steaming piles of dogshit.Oh and Star Wars is dull as fu**.
proman_x I have a question.
In light of all the money being donated to bushfire victims and rebuilding effort, it's got me wondering about the old saying, "a stitch in time saves nine".
I know of one charitable organisation that focuses on reforestation (https://www.greeningaustralia.org.au/). Given the impact of land clearing on rainfall, reforestation seems like one way of working at a preventative measure for minimising bushfire risk. Wet forests are less likely to burn big.
Do you know of any others, particularly any that focus on soil management?
It's an area of human driven environmental impact that doesn't get the same level of media coverage as CO2 increases, but has just as much chance of negatively impacting human society (through food shortages as opposed to changing weather patterns, natural disatsters, rising sea levels etc).
Preventative measures that can make the land and plant life we rely more robust and resistive the the effects of climate change are something I'd like to get more involved in. Wondering if you had any thoughts.
