Is it really possible that so many fires can start at the same time throughout all Australia?
This is really horrible. Unimaginable amounts of nature and wildlife destroyed.
- it's really happeningmonospaced

- Australia has a problem, robo sees it, global media follows.robotron3k
- The comments are quite interesting. Someone hinting from Aus, all the fires started by man. 24 arsonists, 100 others given warning. Australians are loco.robotron3k
- Robo I think Jesus started the fires for the Aussie’s not backing trump against Iran._niko

- So many arsonists, huh?NBQ00
- ngos and activists are pretty terrible. look at peta. What is the reason for the wildfires? Just "climate change"... hmm suspect responsedeathboy
- Curious how many are actually "lightning" on dry brush.deathboy
- lightning crashes are very real reasons for natural fires, but more often it's accidental or careless people in a dryer-than-normal environmentmonospaced
- https://www.betootaa…thumb_screws
- you are right mono. which is why i question the climate change motive that dry brush + lightning are the cause. unless another way to start wildfires naturallydeathboy
- News hasn't presented unusual weather patterns or conditions, but brush fires yes. my instinct goes towards climate style peta nut jobsdeathboy
- Oh. No doubt climate change is a factor. The climate change in Australia is severe and has made things far more fire hazardous. That can’t be denied dumbassmonospaced

- I'm sure they have the same misinformed talking points to handwave climate change. My favorite lately is "200 arsonists have been arrested".garbage
- ~ 25 people have been arrested for arson, the remainder are people who have been arrested for looting and whatnot.garbage

- and ben you base your scale of reference soley on an emo/selfish point of view. go big like 100k or even 40k which data suggests are bigger cyclesdeathboy

Debunked Australian Bushfire Conspiracy Theories Were Pushed by Alex Jones, Murdoch Media
https://www.desmogblog.com/2020/…
Victoria police said, “There is currently no intelligence to indicate that the fires in East Gippsland and the North East have been caused by arson or any other suspicious behaviour.”
Rural Fire Service spokesman, “The majority of the larger fires in the state [of New South Wales] were caused by lightning, and that arson was a relatively small source of ignition.”
Members of the New South Wales fire brigade have also dismissed the idea that the fires are due to efforts by the Green Party to stop fire management practices.
- the most amazing thins was how quick robo lapped up his far right dog food like a good little boy.inteliboy
- is the cnn story bs then? https://www.cnn.com/…PonyBoy
- Or this statement by the new s wales gov? https://bit.ly/35MmF…PonyBoy
- I'm only asking... I admit my ignorance... the last shit I read on this was these two items a few days ago.PonyBoy
- shit.. missed the second paragraph in your post... I'd agree w/the idea that 'arson was a relatively small source of ignition' based on the nsw statementPonyBoy
- 卐 Fox News 卐utopian
- UnrealFax_Benson
- CNN reported what was happening as a result of the rumor, obviously. Not reporting the rumor itself it seems.monospaced
- Same with the wales link, it seems. Reporiting on police action, not that the arson were the cause. I might be wrong?monospaced
- 40 juvis started 200+ fires, 24 others intentional, +100 others. It's not 1 arsonist 1 fire, more like 5 fires per 1 arsonist. But lightning starts fires?robotron3k
- CNN is just as bad & bias as Fauxmoldero
- Lol arson. How gullible some people are.nb
- I dunno robo, maybe listen to the experts? not your shit "news" sources.inteliboy

- Uh oh... https://www.washingt…robotron3k
- More reports of plague of youth and firebug arson starting from last summer till now, https://bit.ly/3a0TZ… he estimates 10k firebugs in the regionrobotron3k
- NB I'm using my fucking brain like you recco'd and I found this, 87% all fires are man made, https://bit.ly/2QLBo… why CNN say only 24 people?robotron3k
- Opinion pieces as “facts”....you’re a fucken moron Robo. NSW fire service has released figures that between 1-2% of all bushfires are arson. Cockhead.BusterBoy
- And that 200 arson case figure being quoted is utter garbage. Includes people who lit BBQs on days of fire ban and similar offences. So just fuck right off.BusterBoy
- Ok, I'll concede, if the arsonist aren't to blame, it's gotta be the anti-rakers!!robotron3k
- Well as long as it's something that supports your world view.inteliboy
- So lightning is to blame? Fuckin weird bolts of electricity!deathboy
- I want to start a kickstarter public fund to research and figure out how to stop lightning from every hurting anyone or anything again donate here -->deathboy
- Lightning is a byproduct of chemtrails thefore the fires are man-made therefore 100% of the fires are arson.
Only man is to blame here.deadsperm - sounds lie you have your own eco crusade spermy. we can cross donate 10k to get our funding going,deathboy

- why do liberals promote the idea of stopping climate change?deathboy
- Also in the intro the 97% shit is fiction or at least without reference, iis it details like that may separate the political voting populace?deathboy
- why i figure another 4yr trump. because basic numbers he represents ideals more than anyone else.deathboy
- Because they’re more educated and aren’t controlled by energy and fuel lobbyists.monospaced
- What ideal does trump represent? And how does science fact and climate change denial feed into any known ideal?monospaced
- maybe ideal is wrong word. he represents, or more manipulates, a basic common sense that indoctrinated privledged neglect.deathboy
- the majority care about getting to work which involves fossil fuels. Very straigt forward. They don't care about environment or tax credits on a 50K+ vehicledeathboy
- they can;t charge because they can't even afford retrofitting their home... or apt. surprised the liberals with them in apts...deathboy
- no matter how you shake it down any economic policy involving climate change is an added cost on the poor. So they see it as a joke. No matter the ad buys. Thedeathboy
- majority effected will say fuck off. Its a very poor value proposition on something completely out of control. Churchs did it with heaven back in the daydeathboy
- but without dark age laws it's not going to be a thingdeathboy
- ok, so you see it as a joke because you're poor and it's too costly? derpmonospaced
- anecdotes and feelz are not sciencemonospaced
- i see it as a joke because im not an idiot who clearly thinks money equals intelligence and looks at basic econ 101deathboy
- mono what happens in 2030 when the cheapest car is like 30K by gov mandates? Did you know vehicles coudl be so much cheaper today for the poor if you didntdeathboy
- mandate so much of the safety shit in them liek cameras and shit. 5k to fix a bumper these days. but perhaps politcians have never been about free trade...deathboy
- writing rules to boost sectors absolutely unnessecary for private gain. Its hard to saany "green" tech hasnt been primarily financed by gov rules and lobbyingdeathboy
- Just as big oil, however big oil actually played a huuuuge role in our progress. in currency and what not.deathboy
- now oil doesnt dicate how one lives or operates as much as carbon taxes. and this here is western globalization play by establishing rules and drumming up fansdeathboy
- to impose upon the world and also gain even more control over industry and coprorations that may act poorly. globalization is a form of socialismdeathboy
- I didn't equate money to intelligence. If that is what you took away, it's probably because you're not intelligent, and also why you don't invest smartly.monospaced
- Furthermore, government cannot, will not, and has never mandated the price of a vehicle. If the cheapest is $30K in 2030, it will be due to inflation.monospaced
- Funny how you would argue that a car so cheap it doesn't meet safety standards would be an accomplishment of free trade. That would be stupid as fuck.monospaced
- Once again, you're here arguing AGAINST progress. Sticking to your unique brand of pseudo-intellectual but meaningless connections and ramblings.monospaced
- haha mono u do something and than say u didn't. did u learn your tact from trump? maybe it works amongst some
demos but to me is quite funnydeathboy - and mono don't be so obtuse. with every regulation gov mandates a price of a vehicle. do you think their regulations live outside economics?deathboy
- a car so cheap doesnt meet safety standards... and what are those standards dictated by whom?deathboy
- perhaps a cup holder that monitors temperature to prevent spillage of hot substance while driving? add 5K to car pricedeathboy
- you really display your ignorance of things. and i know you think you are being "smart" but maybe you should check your premise once in awhiledeathboy
- like have you ever question your definition of progress? Im against a 2 class feudal system makes me against progress... haha jeez dudedeathboy

Pittsburgh's high temperature breaks a 130-year-old record
A typical January day in Pittsburgh means temperatures reach the mid-30s.
But Saturday's temperatures were a far cry from the usual with the thermometer reaching a sizzling 70 degrees.
And it wasn't just unusual. The temperature broke a 130-year-old record of 68 degrees set in 1890.
- no source or based commentary on subject... hmm i think utopian sold outdeathboy

- fuckin flying spaghetti monsters, meme gif. knowledge is public go find info to deny it! I need know backing you simps!deathboy
- hahaha and there is so much money in climate data numbers you little fella. It's a a 1.5 trillion dollar business some put it at.deathboy
- whats a few grand for paid posts as "influencer" dollars. Curious if there is money in it because i believe the world is gonna end in 12 years to global warmingdeathboy
- for a price. Im sure some could even try to sell this community of what like 30 ppl as much bigger for influence sells to some corporate peon.deathboy

- This guy omgmonospaced
- The temperatures were recorded for hundreds of years. It’s not fake you fucking retard. Going on and on as if someone was profiting of taking temps.monospaced
- You act as if the data is hidden and therefore the entire basis is not acceptable or real. Dude. It’s temperature. It’s real and available. Dumb fuck.monospaced
- You just have to type into google and ask for the data. It’s fucking public. Are you really a science denier that you compare it to religion to take it down?monospaced
- i have looked at the data. im quite sure more than yourself. and i find it quite it like a bad google analytics report. quite limited really.deathboy
- and there is a difference between fake and relevant in context. Take traffic in google from known spiders or fake shit. Data is real but do you count thosedeathboy
- metrics. This is where data pays and the lobbying potential pays. If you ignore greed and monetary gains in greenwashing shit you are being ingorantdeathboy
- as far as data forecasting for a abstract future. Yea the incentive structure is same as religiondeathboy
- How is it not? Believe and follow in X and in the future you get Y. But if you dont follow or believe X you are doomed to helldeathboy
- come on. did i give you to much credit for basic reasoning skills?deathboy

typical climate change. So what is "human" percentage and how much of that isdeathboy - jsut being alive as a human. I find it hard to believe recycling adn drivign an EV create a neutral human footprint right?deathboy
- so exactly what do humnas hav eto do to completely offset there footprint and counter basic climate change? and the cost?deathboy
- now evidecne of such a thing maybe mor eimportant than posting random spook reports. because even nasa scientists will tell you they work in averages and neverdeathboy
- specific locations becuase that data is irrelevant to the big averages... which I shrug at and say well it a bit simplistic in thinking depending on what regiondeathboy
- s offer, but you know its all hindsight data analytics. similar to stock market analysts, and how right are all those right?deathboy

Greta Thunberg applies to trademark her own name
STOCKHOLM — Teen climate activist Greta Thunberg said on Instagram on Wednesday she has applied to register her name and that of the Fridays For Future movement she founded in 2018, which has gone global and catapulted her to international fame.
The move would allow legal action against persons or companies trying to apply her name or the movement’s for uses that are not in line with its values, she said.
- makes sense, since her name is almost a brand at this point, from a legal perspectivemonospaced

Even maintaining a Covid-level of emissions is not enough to stop climate change. we are fucked if this is true.
Fall in COVID-linked carbon emissions won’t halt climate change - UN weather agency chief
- Nairn2
^ that's fine. I wouldn't have particularly expected it to - there's been a drop in airline and passenger vehicle emissions, but industry and agriculture is 'essential' and basically unchanged, as too all the other large slices on the CO2 Emission pie chart.
What's great about this though is that there's a physical proof that a reduction in polluting activity has a direct and highly-visible positive effect on dense urban populations. Also too the ideas of new ways of working and living life.
Also, perhaps an evaluation of what's important - something like that post WW2 spirit, but all green and feely-feely.
- I'vebeen saying for years now, half-jokingly "We need a war". I think this whole bullshit year could stand in place of an actual shooting war.Nairn

The world is on lockdown. So where are all the carbon emissions coming from?
https://grist.org/climate/the-wo…
In a sad irony, the decrease in air pollution may make it even hotter. Veerabhadran Ramanathan, a professor at the Scripps Institution of Oceanography at University of California, San Diego, explained that many polluting particles have a “masking” effect on global warming, reflecting the sun’s rays, canceling out some of the warming from greenhouse gas emissions. With that shield of pollution gone, Ramanathan said, “We could see an increase in warming.”
Appreciate the bluer skies and fresher air, while you can. But the emissions drop from the pandemic should be a warning, not a cause for celebration: a sign of how much further there is to go.
- Oh for fuck’s sake, we can’t catch a break!Gnash
- heh, i thought that was a good follow up to the article you posted gnash... 5.5% reduction from lockdown but 7.5% annual reduction required ooftkingsteven
- the whole opposite effect of the air clearing up... if it’s dirty it traps heat, if it’s clean it lets more heat in. Soooo, now what?Gnash
- Good article, though.Gnash
- there was a paper last week that suggested that the relationship between air pollution and covid isn't that peoples lungs are damaged/ more susceptiblekingsteven
- but that the virus is suspended for longer and travels further by surfing the particulate matter in the air. so maybe a small R0 reduction from that and a smallkingsteven
- reduction from higher temps may at least help in the short term. if anything this crisis in general shows us how much can change in a short period.kingsteven
