Is climate change responsible for the volatile oils in gumtrees?

'I think the greens are struggling with the concept that their policy of stopping the reduction of fuel load has far more impact on the forest fires than any emissions by Australia.'

actually the Greens largely struggle with truth.

For SR, 2019 is a critical year vis a vis the Arctic sea ice extent. His entire argument against the fact that Arctic Sea ice has been increasing since 2007 is based on the as yet unverified guesstimate as to the September 2019 numbers.

2007 on the other hand is a mere outlier, to be ignored. Only used by deniers or something.

So 2019 - super important and totally relevant.
2007 - nothing to see here...move along.

Sea Ice extent in 2019 4,150,000 sq km
Sea Ice extent in 2007 4,160,000 sq km

A statistical tie according to NSIDC.

Same number, totally different value. One supports his hopes and is therefore oh so important. One debunks his beliefs and must be disregarded.

This is the level of logic that leads SR down the garden path so often.

BTW SR were the predictions about 2013 shown to be true or false?

runner, I can understand why you are a fundo christian, believing in fairy tales like you do. No the Greens do not have a policy of no hazard reduction, that is simply a lie, 3 Hail Mary's and an Act of Contrition my son and all will be forgiven by the Great Sky Being.

Issy, sitting out in the bush waiting for a burnt up wombat to shoot, and sniffing petrol at the same time is extra dangerous at the moment.

Paul,

You're right about the Greens having a policy on hazard reduction, they wrote it in after they were so heavily criticized over their role in the disastrous Victorian bushfires a few years ago.

Can you tell us if it's true that they are going to advise people to clear the gumtrees away from their homes?

42 Hours without the internet, my servers mountain top site hit by fires
If some could see my area? I did first on Tuesday a brief trip in to ash then, after another highway closure yesterday
The term Emergency sure is best to describe this and many other areas
Tell me when, in spring, this country faced so many fires
So many stated at once fighting them
I saw homes of people I knew reduced to ash and twisted tin
I hope we do not see the inspected summer and even autumn and send my regards to victims and fire fighters country wide
