However, the Aussies from the 'management brigade' are insisting that it is "…...nothing to do with Climate Change". One even used the words Aboriginal people (should it not be Indigenous People?) when saying that 'old ways' of burning back stuff in the winter season have been abandoned and this is one of the causes along with three years of severe drought and 'things' that spark off fires! Now, I can't argue with any of that as I know nothing about the place, except the rather patronising use of dated language that seems typical of the flat Earth thinkers. However I suspect the people being scared shitless, being made homeless and losing loved ones may want to argue about attitudes in their Government and policy decisions after this.

It's not surprising though, is it? This is exactly the sort of amplification of natural phenomena that climate scientists have been warning about.

2020 looks set to be an apocalyptic year all round. (Happy New Year!)
