Note from CAF:
I wanted to post the charts linked below for my discussion with Dr. Farrell on the Unanswered Questions in the 2019 Annual Wrap Up.
One of our Australian subscribers has been tracking reports on the fires in New South Wales in Eastern Australia in recent months. His calculations show a final fire size in New South Wales as of this date of 3,366,060 hectares or 12,996.43 square miles or 8,317,716.03 acres. These are based on original reports—it is noted that later reports scale back estimated size.
This area is 4.2% of the land area of New South Wales. It is equivalent to 8% of California, 99% of the Netherlands, 31% of Tennessee, 166% of Massachusetts, 176% of New Jersey, or 200% of Hawaii. See the attached calculations for more comparisons.
These fires are extraordinary in both their size and significance.
Hi Catherine. Maybe you have covered this, but it occurs to me that the weaponization of weather may coincide conveniently with the promotion of the dangers of climate change and throw in agenda 2030 to boot. Could it be that the weaponization of weather will be the bogus “proof” that climate change exists and must be dealt with immediately, especially in the West?
I would give that a 99.99999999999999999999999999999999% chance.
Having spent a week in the Northern Territory, I will say that the fires indicated there could well represent the controlled burn executed there throughout the year. Other than Darwin, the region is not very populated with humans. We were there in April when winter was just about to set in, and vast areas were being burned as the Savannah there which is exposed each winter is subject to devastating fires unless carefully controlled throughout the year. In the tropics, NT is where the crocodile lives in every flood plain and spring billabong when the flood lands have disappeared to vast grass plains (Savannah) and mud holes. New South Wales is another matter. Much more heavily populated and where cattle and other ungulates and marsupials crop the grasslands, these fires are simply devastating. With a far left wing PM who controls speech, taxes, and Australian sovereignty, like California, there is much more going on there “than meets the (eye) media”.

Yes, many of the fires are in the unpopulated land. The new PM is conservative, I believe.
