The fires are bad...but its only one small remote part compared to the size of Australia

No it isn't. It's a fucking huge part of Australia. 4 million hectares are affected.

This is a country that is 17 times the size of Britain remember. Over a third is desert and over two thirds of it is classed as arid - and the fires are happening NOT in those areas. Lots of images in this piece. - but this stands out as a quote:

The scope of the fires is hard to comprehend. In New South Wales alone, blazes have created a fire front in the state that — if put into a straight line — would stretch from Sydney, across the Indian Ocean, and into Afghanistan

Your religious adherence to your belief is blinding you to a huge problem - and the fires aren't the problem, they're just one small symptom of the problem.

You have a mental abberation much more severe and way more dangerous than any adherent of islam.

You're so edgy @Job.

Look through this list and find anything close to the magnitude of the current fires in the last 30 years. In fact sort them by "area burned" and the only one that comes close is from 1851. I know the 2019 one is a cumulation of a lot of fires but it's a major event and you sitting there acting like it's no big deal is ridiculous.

Regarded as one of the worst bushfire seasons in memory, the fires had burned through more land than any other blazes in the past 25 years. New South Wales experienced the longest continuously burning bushfire complex in Australia's history, having burned more than 4 million hectares (9,900,000 acres), with 70-metre (230 ft) high flames being reported. In comparison, the 2018 California wildfires consumed 766,439 hectares (1,893,910 acres) and the 2019 Amazon rainforest wildfires burnt 900,000 hectares (2,200,000 acres) of land.

 

[Job]

Lol.
Of course its not happening in the fucking desert

Its burned now.
So it wont burn again for a good while.

The only solution to the cycle would be to deforest it, like theyve done where all the people live, which would harm 'nature' a thousand times more.

Yes the..

Caused by climate change?

 

[Scouse]

Gawd damnit. People like you make me wish Hitler had won and cleansed the country of low IQ-ers.

 

[Job]

Heres the fires.

 

[Scouse]

Yes. I know. That's *huge*.

Kindly superimpose the UK on that picture and perhaps your tiny little mind will grasp the scale - because words and numbers are clearly lost on you.

Edit: done it for you. You fucking idiot.

 

[Job]

Its still a tiny part of Australia as I said

 

[Job]

You seem happy for the media to wildly exaggerate..to out of context stories when it suits you.

But no...Australia isnt 'on fire'...there are bush fires in a region that always gets bush fires.
They are perfectly natural and nature has adapted over the millenia to deal with them.

 

[Scouse]

Its still a tiny part of Australia as I said

No it isn't. It's a fucking huge part of habitable Australia - there's no part of New South Wales that hasn't been touched. Empirically that's clearly the case.

You refuse to believe the evidence of your own eyes - because it doesn't fit the narrative you want desparately to be true. Just like the crazy religious person you are.

Heres the fires.

And you think that's not a big deal? That's literally a two-three day drive through QNZ/NSW. That's absolutely fucking massive.

You move Blighty into the bottom right hand corner of that picture, it gets swallowed up. Oz is 38 times bigger than Britain.

Ain't no use talking to Job. He gets hard from being a contrarian. Evidence is no use to him.

 

[Job]

These are normal fires.
If you want to start fretting over natural events simply because of their scale then youd better get the Prozac ready.
If a nuclear power station blew up I'd appreciate the frenzy.
They happen all the time and a big burn out results in long periods of calm.
In other news.
Cyclones..Tornadoes...ice storms..plagues...starvation..aids..war.

 

[caLLous]

So if every last acre of Australia burned to a crisp, just because it happened at this time of year, it'd be "normal"? You're a fucking moron.

 

[Embattle]

Go on folks...keep wasting your time

 

[Job]

Australia was burning in the stoneage.

I'd call it normal.

This fire is already 40% bigger than any recorded in Australian history and it shows no sign of slowing down. At what point do you consider it an unusual event? 50% bigger? 100%? The entire continent?

As long as the fires stop at Calais, I think he won't miss his tea over it.

Anyone on fire............

Nope.

No you don't

 

[Moriath]

I dont know if this is true or not. But i heard in recent years controlled burns and or forest clearing have been reduced because of environmental impact and budget cuts. And this apparently means theres a lot more to burn and none of the usual fire breaks to stop it spreading.

anyone know if this is true?

Made some dark chocolate (85% cocoa) ganache truffles covered in flakes of milk chocolate and crushed hazelnuts and almonds.

First attempt. They're awesome. And dead easy to make

Oh yes.
All this will come out, including asking these idiots why they want to live in the middle of bush that burns every year and risks firefighters lives.

Don't you live on the coast?

My brother lives in a lush green suburb of Sydney. At the end of his garden is a jetty and a small sailing boat.

Fires were recently just over 1000 meters away from his house.

1 kilometer. If the wind was blowing the other direction it would all have been gone - and maybe him with it - it jumped the river just up from him.

The fires are so big that you cannot simply bush clear to provide no-burn barriers - it's been so hot, so dry for so long (hugely unusual climate for even Australia) that single sparks - that can travel in the air for miles - start new fires.


Those, Job, are actual facts - not made up ones that you use, but real ones.

 

[Job]

Don't you live on the coast?

Yes..in fact right next to a pine forest.
If it started burning uncontrollably every year....I'd move.

To where?

Almost all of the liveable eastern cost of Australia has been affected. Where do you expect that 15 million or so people to go?

@Scouse i was asking if what i heard was true. Not fishing for you to dislike it dude
