All the while we are shipping coal offshore in huge volumes & wish to engage in a gas-led recovery of the economy.
Stop smoking the crack pipe.
Whats this? Radically and permanently altering the state of forests changes the way they behave in fires? Surely not....Stop fucking with nature!
TBH I’m astonished this report was allowed to be published!
Straya!
I think your right there! If they log them, so there are no forests left at all, there will be no more bush fires. Easy right?Obviously proof the forests werent logged hard enough.
Then add cows and sheep for more 'straya day BBQ's, she'll be right mate!I think your right there! If they log them, so there are no forests left at all, there will be no more bush fires. Easy right?
Scotty from marketing will be contacting you regarding your "Order of 'Straya - Best marketing spin" accolade soon!Then add cows and sheep for more 'straya day BBQ's, she'll be right mate!
Imagine the sort of shit we'd be in if hadn't cut most of them all down long ago!!Whats this? Radically and permanently altering the state of forests changes the way they behave in fires? Surely not....
I believe that a phase change occurs in this instance and they transmogrify into something quite benevolent called a 'grass fire'. My Minister advises that these can be easily contained with simple metal cone. I'm still not clear exactly how that works...I think your right there!

It needs to be inverse.I believe that a phase change occurs in this instance and they transmogrify into something quite benevolent called a 'grass fire'. My Minister advises that these can be easily contained with simple metal cone. I'm still not clear exactly how that works...
Truth is the population is way beyond where it would need to be capped. That's the elephant in the room that no one has the balls to mention.Let's face it, at one stage in the future they're going to have to cap the population, possibly as people die they can allow people to give birth.
Yep, I hate it. Domestically all the stupid baby bonuses and tax concessions for parents to encourage population/economic growth have me baffled as it's such short-sighted policy making. I get why the governments aren't willing to upset all the Mum and Dad voters by actually tackling the issue (ie: it'd be electoral suicide), but realistically it's the easiest part of this ever-growing challenge to tackle. Something like China's old one-child policy (without the associated gender, err, "selection" issues) needs to be introduced worldwide, but internationally it won't happen either as there is so many places that have cultural/religious beliefs that having as many children as possible is paramount. Who'd want education and strict but fair and effective government policy now, when we can wait and stick it out with religion and neoliberalism setting the groundwork to wipe out huges swathes of human population (and biodiversity generally) in the inevitable wars and famines to come... Yay humans!Truth is the population is way beyond where it would need to be capped. That's the elephant in the room that no one has the balls to mention.
