FIRST LOCAL BUSH FIRES πŸ”₯ 😒 I love a tasty hot white well lit oven,  Just not a fire feral and outa control…  Surrender to Your Own True Nature surrender to the whole self eliminates the force full dis Integrated ego. When the ego is peace fully whole, The over burden is shifted  The rubbish is removed  The fire cleanses, THEN FULLY FLOWING A Gorgeous grace of humanity appears. YOUR OWN!  πŸ™πŸ’šπŸ™  

Australian Bushfire Response? Ability?

Researched and Compiled by Kara Eva Schlegl Additional research and fact checking: Simon Holmes Γ  Court Special thanks to Dan Ilic, Alex Gabbott, Maria Yanovsky, Ena Markovic, Matt Perrott, James Colley, Scott Ludlam, Tim Minchin, Simon & Katrina Holmes Γ  Court & Dick Smith. Introduction I was driving home at 3am, after my team and I finalised the edit of this video, and a government ad came on the radio advising that extreme water restrictions are now in place, due to the severe drought currently afflicting NSW. I don’t know about you, but I’m furious. Furious that we are governed by people who will instruct us to have shorter showers, and at the same time, will allow Australia’s mining sector to consume over 20% of our freshwater supply every single year . I’m furious that our government will pour billions of dollars into the mining sector, but refuses to pay even minimum wage to the firefighters who put their lives on the line for us every bushfire season. In December...

Australia Burning

Australia Burning  on Vimeo . "I stand by what I said a decade ago: climate change represents the greatest economic, environmental and moral challenge of our time. Moral because it’s about what’s right and wrong for the nation. Moral because it’s about intergenerational justice." Kevin Rudd  #scottyfrommarheting #fossilfool #stoolpigeon #shotduck  

Peter Garrett and Julian Cribb. Well Said.

I’m grieving at the multiple losses suffered on a staggering scale #BushfireEmergency ;angry at the repeated, despicable behaviour of ⁦ @ScottMorrisonMP ⁩, frustrated that #ClimateEmergency is upon us. But so proud of our spirit; volunteer heroes, generous communities, hope. pic.twitter.com/4TOZpOkwnA — Peter Garrett (@pgarrett) January 5, 2020 Dear Greta, nothing scares them worse than the truth. There are only 3 motives for climate denial - greed, malice and ignorance. You challenge all three aspects of human nature. Rightly. Stick with it. The world needs your courage, your integrity, your truth. — πŸ’§Julian Cribb (@JulianCribb) January 5, 2020

5th Of January. Our Home. Sadness, Heartbreak, Reality.

"Australia is on fire. And the summer there has only just begun.  2019 was a year of record heat and record drought.  Today the temperature outside Sydney was 48,9°C. 500 million (!!) animals are estimated dead because of the bushfires.  Over 20 people have died and thousands of homes have burned to ground.  The fires have spewed 2/3 of the nations national annual CO2 emissions,  according to the Sydney Morning Herald.  The smoke has covered glaciers in distant New Zealand (!)  making them warm and melt faster because of the albedo effect. And yet. All of this still has not resulted in any political action.  Because we still fail to make the connection between the climate crisis  and increased extreme weather events and nature disasters like the #AustraliaFires That has to change. And it has to change now. My thoughts are with the people of Australia  and those affected by these devastating fires." G...
