Hi Powdies of the world,
Here in France, we have images of the fires in the news with grim
casualty reports. Though, I can see that no one around here really
feels concerned: Oz is so far, it could be on another planet.
Fear of unemployment is first priority in people's thoughts.
As a traveler, I visited this part of Australia in September 2002.
Back then, I remember, the land was very dry, even farmland.
I cannot say that I have friends there, but for sure I met so many
good people that I feel more concerned than the common French.
Is it an effect of climate change? Or is it a severe effect of the
infamous El Nino/La Nina?
It seems to me it is more likely the usual suspect: the criminally
Insane who sets forests on fire…in Southern France, California &
anywhere.
