I fear you're right - I can easily imagine our own ones still talking about 'it's the summer' as London goes up. |  |

Though ultimately those denying it aren’t stopping the rest of us doing something about it. So it’s the shy denialism and unwillingness to change that’s the more pressing issue. |  |

Yea, look there have been fires in the past, and rain, it’s just you know, bad co-ordination, just unlucky that the fires and rain are in different places at the moment, no biggy. |  | |  |
More tragic wildfires on 18:27 - Aug 10 with 1500 views | ElephantintheRoom | Hot countries have fires every year - usually caused by humans. In my neck of the woods there were disastrous fires last year south of Bordeaux….the worst since, ahem 1945. Last year was also pretty Smokey in Australia - the worst since, ahem, 1920. And guess what it’s 10 degrees cooler in Australia and SW France this summer because temperatures vary year on year. Next year it will be a bit cooler in Greece, Italy - and Hawaii But maybe not somewhere else a long way from where you are. |  |

A 2021 study by the U.S.’s National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration concluded that climate change has been the main driver of the increase in fire weather in the western United States. That same year, research by Australia’s national science agency, CSIRO, found climate change has driven the significant increase in forest fires in the country for the past 30 years. But, hey, sometimes it’s hot, and sometimes it’s not. |  | |  |

My dilemma is do I undiv this **** to see what this **** has written. The correct answer for my optimum mental well-being is 'No', but then there's the stupid rubber-necking gene in me. |  |

I''d give it a swerv. He's either looking for a reaction or just a moron. Neither make it an observation worth engaging with tbh |  |

Lovely, but I think most of us understand the concept of weather. That wasn’t the topic being discussed though. |  |

Eli’s just noticed that places have weather and that wildfires happen. So I wouldn’t bother unblocking. |  |

Well said. It's people like you, wee jimmy cranky and kGB news who 'tell it like it is'. The Great Fire of London. Did that really happen, if so why are there still buildings in London older than the supposed date ? People might dismiss you sort as nutters, but one day you will be proved right. Not by scientific evidence though, as that be manipulated, as you have demonstrated. But by people like yourself. True believers. Those who don't let facts or rational argument sway them. Did you know that parts of London recorded the hottest temperatures ever, over 80 years ago? Far higher than now. Admittedly, it was during the Blitz when the Tate & Lyle sugar warehouse caught fire, You keep speaking out Elephant Man Ignore the heretics who laugh at you. Intelligence is not everything, you know. |  | |  |

Harry's excellent response here has told me all I need to know of the original. I note that there was no reference to Antarctic ice sheets, so I presume Elinphantile has forgotten to educate us with the fact that the Antarctic ice sheets were much, much smaller 4.6bn years ago. |  |

Thank you for those kind words young sir You forget however, righties have always been able to predict what will happen. Was it not Nostradimus who foretold of the rise of Putin ? "A great force from the East shall come, by the name of Claddin, who will lay waste to Gran Britania, by the use of roubles and simples" Mind you, old Fart Rage knows his stuff, as a day after the refendim he proclaimed “The E.U.’s failing,” he said. “The E.U.’s dying" And in 2018 he predicted the EU would collapse 5 years hence. Though that collapse was amended to ten years in 2020. He named "Italy, Denmark and Poland - as being among those most likely to next exit the EU." “They are the frontrunners” he declared. Farage believes the UK departure will prove a “hammer blow” to the EU and these institutions will not be here within ten years.” So three and a half years after that 2020 old bllox the EU is going from strength to strength. Its increased support has been accredited to the suicidal action of the UK. Akin to a Town fans handing in his season ticket because some spiv had told he could get him a ticket for any part of the ground and for any match, far cheaper than any ST works out as. However, fartrage, wee Jimmy Cranky and other fellow travellers have one great advantage over the normal folk. They KNOW how thick righties are so can peddle populists slogans knowing rightie will have slept by the time the next one pops up, and so will have forgotten what he was previously told |  | |  |

But the average number of fires days and events in the world is up. And the average temperature is up. That’s the whole point of statistically averages, they negate the outliers. It’s not complicated but it is important that people understand that so that reality dawns and Ill founded theories are discarded. |  |

More tragic wildfires on 00:30 - Aug 11 with 1160 views | BondiBlue | After the big fires here in 2019/20 i sensed a definite shift in the attitude of the farmers. Or maybe they just became more vocal. A couple of years later and we have voted in labour governments in every state and at a federal level that were voted in on a pro-climate change action platform. Not as strong a platform as in previous years but still noticably stronger than their opposition. In the cities at the federal level, lots of the outgoing MPs lost their seats to independent fellow conservatives who were pro-climate change action. We're getting there. |  |
