I don't agree with every aspect he brings up but it is well researched and makes some good points. FYI when you get to the end, if we get to 3deg C it still ain't good......

I read it. it was a moderate piece i guess, but skeptical of
anyone who is still
linking climate change with the australian fires, which as far as i know were caused by arson, not climate change.

Why aren’t we building nuclear plants as rapidly as we can? what’s a better solution that has any feasibility to it?

your article tries to link climate change to the fires by saying that hot, dry weather enables
fires to spread. that’s true. but it’s australia, and it’s summer there, right? hasn’t it always been hot and dry there in the summer? i

True. Just like we need controls
on long term storage of dead
lithium batteries and solar panels. lots of toxicity there, obviously not on the same page as
nuclear, but we’ll need a lot
if space for refuse batteries and panels. i understand they are tough to recycle, don’t know why.

The arsonist angle in Australia is another red herring conspiracy throw out by fox news and climate deniers

Lead in on American Greatness 1st time see them. There as far right as you get

Environmentalists Caused Australia’s Fires, Not ‘Climate Change’

How hard is the concept its climate change that caused the conditions and a spark or cigarette or an ember from a camp fire lit the fuse , like Trump and his supporters
Blame the whistleblower deny the evidence

do you have any evidence that it was climate change? or do you just want it to be climate change to serve The Narrative? It’s hot and dry there, WDMSO, that’s not a new situation.
