Celebrities, activists using Australia bushfire crisis to push dangerous climate change myth

---SNIP--- I’m sorry, but I lived in Australia through the past two decades of escalating fire crises and it’s not climate change that has caused today’s disaster, but the criminal negligence of governments that have tried to buy green votes by locking up vast tracts of land as national parks, yet failed to spend the money needed to control ground fuel and maintain fire trails.

Instead, they bowed to an ideology that obstructs necessary hazard reduction and prevents landowners from clearing vegetation around their own properties, all in thrall to the god of “biodiversity.”

Lots of good info in this article. The money line is The only practical way to prevent unmanageable fires is to reduce the one variable we control: ground fuel.

While there seems to be some evidence there is climate change ongoing at this time (as there has each day back through history), the connection to it being caused by human activity is a myth. There are many things on going at the moment that they cannot point to being man caused which alter climate: Volcanos, both on land and under water, for instance. Then consider the magnetic changes, sun spot decrease, changes on other planets in our solar system, surely not caused by man even with them being impacted by a few exploration craft. The point is, humans have as much effect on “climate change” as a butterfly flapping its wings in Mexico.

I find it interesting that the initial reports of arson and the arrest of at least a dozen people...have fallen off the radar.

Were the reports true? If so, who were those arrested? Climate change activists perhaps? Engaging in a sort of false flag operation? Is so, is this why these stories were spiked? Inquiring minds want to know.

EXACTLY! Fire jihad jettisoned?

We got this same sort of lack of forest maintenance during the Clinton administration. And plenty of fires as a result.

Everything in the Article California did first and is continuing to do, and they are accelerating their idiotic plans. I expect massive out of control fires every year.

Bush fires are Nature doing the work she's done for millions of years, recycling the chemical basis of all known life forms, CARBON. In the past geologic blink of an eye humans have occasionally tries to tame her more flamboyant and flammable side by trimming back the fuel. But Nature never stops and if we don't preempt the necessary she'll just proceed as always.

In Australia (and other places) the Ignorati known as "Environmentalists" actually try to speed the process through arson. Helps get rid of those nasty houses built in the forests and bush by nasty rich folks. And then they have the audacity to tell everyone it's that it's normal people leading normal modern lives who are the cause via that mythical beastie known previously (before it became obvious there hasn't been any real "warming" for over 20 years) as "AGW", or more au currant as Human Caused Climate Change.

I vote for recycling carbon through an open hunting season on those who preach this nonsense. No bag limit and year round. As is appropriate for vermin.

Dammit! “tried”, not “tries”.

“The Black Friday bushfires of 13 January 1939, in Victoria, Australia, were among the worst natural bushfires in the world. Almost 20,000 km² of land was burned, 71 people died, several towns were entirely obliterated and the Royal Commission that resulted from it led to major changes in forest management.” -Wikipedia

Australia’s fires are due to modern science. Muslims finally figured out how matches work.

Small story on Muslim “teen gangs” being arrested for Arson, and how they laughed at the Judges.
