Man made climate change denialism is the issue that has defined Australian politics for over a decade. Four prime ministers and a couple of leaders of the opposition have been removed by their own party for being on the wrong side. As with brexit it began when a minority group within one party managed to grab the balance of power. They then blocked any policy change towards reducing carbon use.
For almost 200 years the Australian economy and easy lifestyle have depended on ruthless exploitation of the natural and mineral resources the white immigrants found there. To take effective climate action requires a fundamental change to the whole culture of the country.
The arsonist myth about bushfires has been around for a long time. It is a convenient cover for those who have done nothing about climate change. The evidence suggests that about 1% of the current fire damage is due to arson.
