Australia is burning down... 1

The bushfires are out of control. A town has been razed (or more).
It seems that no matter how we try to save the environment, the environment turns on us because of what we did to the environment.
Auustralia is importing fire fighters from other countries...
On the flip side, many dangerous spiders have been burnt. So there's that...

In the big scheme of things, humans haven't done a thing to address environmental ravaging and the causes of climate change.

This age we are living in is slipping away. The times they are a changin. It's almost unimaginable what global warming has the potential to turn into.
The age of massive fossil fuel use is going to end one way or the other. Either through will or through what nature dishes out on the human race.

The recent report that methane climate positive feedback in the artic has begun is dire. The top ten hottest years on record have all been in the past twenty years. Greenland’s ice melt this summer added a half inch to sea levels. What exactly do doubters doubt?

Weve started to see the same political rhetoric here that happens in the states when there is a mass shooting.
One side. "Here is a problem before us and we should do something"
Other side. "Now is not the time to be talking about it and it's disgusting that you make it political"
It's new here.
It's a real problem this time though because sydneysiders cant go for a jog or drink their lattes in cafes because of the smoke.

I think people are skeptical of the end of the world claims and every weather event is completely the result of climate change.

That’s not an end of the world claim. And she’s right. Considering how much you hate brown people I would think that the fact that climate change is going to cause the largest refugee crisis in human history would matter to you
We’ve already had an entire nation have to be evacuated due to rising sea levels.

Nice to see our conservatives have seamlessly shifted from “its a globalist HOAX” to “its ridiculous how out of control this problem is.”

Do you like my grey tree frog? (He was green the day I took the picture, but his color changes with his mood) He lives on my deck with some of his buddies.
