Australia Is Burning: Blame The Greens & The Arsonists | Zero Hedge

Australia Is Burning: Blame The Greens & The Arsonists | Zero Hedge: The current round of blazes started late last year. It has charred at least 15 million acres and killed more than two dozen Australians, including brave volunteer firefighters who rush into the inferno to save homes and lives.

The climate-change narrative grossly oversimplifies bush fires, whose causes are as complex as their recurrence is predictable: Australia is in the midst of one of its regular droughts.

Byzantine environmental restrictions prevent landholders from clearing scrub, brush and trees. State governments don’t do their part to reduce the fuel load in parks. Last November a former fire chief in Victoria slammed that state’s “minimalist approach” to hazard-reduction burning in the off-season. That complaint is heard across the country.

On Monday a parliamentarian from the Australian Greens tweeted about one day holding “climate trials” to deal with conservative politicians.

Main Causes

Arson: More than 180 people have been arrested for allegedly starting blazes since the start of the current bush-fire season.

Secondary Cause: Environmental Restrictions and misguided Green ideology.
