Yes, Australia is on fire… And how! There are over 150 fires burning right now. Over 300 properties have been destroyed and 4 people have lost their lives. Australia is in a catastrophic state of emergency.
Australia no longer the sunburnt country, it is now the country on fire. And weirdly, nobody is talking about it!
Its been predicted that it will take months to get these fires under control. Its only going to get worse.
Just to put in perspective how bad the Eastern Australian bushfires are.
When the Brazilian amazon rainforest went up in flames it burnt 650,000 hectares. Australia so far has lost 1,000,000 hectares. That’s more than 2,500,000 acres.
CALIFORNIA FIRES WERE AROUND 80,000 HECTARES
AMAZON WAS AROUND 650,000 HECTARES
AUSTRALIA HAS LOST MORE THAN 1 MILLION HECTARES AND IS STILL BURNING

Smoke from the Australia fires now spans the Pacific and has moved across the tip of South America and into the Atlantic.

Hi Scott
ReplyDeleteThanks for highlighting the Bushfires here in Australia. The squabbling
within our parliamentary system is nothing short of embarrassing regarding Mankinds treatment of this beautiful home given to us, planet Earth. Summer Here has always had the risk of this kind of natural disaster the indigenous Australians called it Gods cleansing of the land to allow renewal of the bush. But this event is so serious its beyond any natural event. The summer ahead, its official start is still Dec 1st Once again man's selfish behaviour i believe as lead us to this point. Politicians no longer have dignity or honour in communities or Families
We stand by for his word.....

James, I didn't realize just how bad these fires are until recently. Some think the deposits left by chemtrails are making fires worse in california - just food for thought...please keep us updated and stay safe!
