Am wondering if we can split the Bush fire posts from the climate debate ...
... I'd do it myself if I knew how.
Bush Fires thread is here now: https://www.forum.thesilverfern.com/topic/3602/aussie-bush-fires/
Only split the last two days.. couldn't be bothered going further back
Will leave in the Politics area because of questions about regulations, firebreaks etc

Coldplay won't be touring because it's bad for the environment.
Excellent news.
Hopefully this catches on with some other artists. Someone should definitely forward that to Sam Smith...for the good of the world.

Didn't they jump on a plane to do that interview where they announced that?
If so that is just too good.

Greta wrote an op-ed this past weekend. At least she’s not even pretending her activism is just about the environment any more. She’s got biggger fish to fry.
Why We Strike Again

That action must be powerful and wide-ranging. After all, the climate crisis is not just about the environment. It is a crisis of human rights, of justice, and of political will. Colonial, racist, and patriarchal systems of oppression have created and fueled it. We need to dismantle them all. Our political leaders can no longer shirk their responsibilities.
[...]
The claptrap about colonialism, racism, patriarchy and oppression are straight out of globalist Marxist training manuals.

@Salacious-Crumb Colour me shocked!
It really does suck that most environmental activists plans seem to involve some form of genocide.

That's why Nuclear is never on the table for these types of people. All that does is produce clean energy, it doesn't dismantle the patriarchy.

You would think that - as something unlikely to turn a profit pretty much ever - nuclear would attract a few in that area. Its far more socialist than coal, and heckin more environmentally friendly.

The new [hot by politicians standards] Finnish pm is left wing and pro nuke . @JC put me onto this , its interesting. Shellenberger calls wind turbines" bird blenders " apparently they have been quite hard on bat populations in the Uk too

@jegga I've been following Mike Shellenberger for a while, he has a fascinating story around being part of the team that convinced the Obama administration to pump massive funding into renewable's like wind and solar and how they just didn't cut it, and even worse devastated local animal populations like birds who have never had to deal with avoiding giant blades swinging in their path.
