Green opponents never give up. The ABC reports – Lancefield bushfire: Resident says ‘heads should roll’ over controlled burn that escaped containment lines – I see on ABC 24News TV some academic attacking the use of “controlled burns”. Remember that the destruction of the little Tasmanian town Dunalley 4th Jan 2013 was due to a controlled burn that was not properly put out – smouldered away in stumps then broke out after wind got up. Careless work. TV news coverage shows many houses around Lancefield buried in bush – clearly many people do not understand risk.
Reports on large air tankers in Australia spring 2015
Last week – Tuesday afternoon I recall – it was reported on ABC TV news that a large air tanker was being sent to the Lancefield fire from Richmond NSW – I was away a couple of days after that but never saw a photo of it in action and never heard a thing. Did it ever arrive and operate ?
How quickly the greens forget what they don’t want to remember. Have they already expunged the devastating wildfires and 200 plus deaths of less than a decade ago from history?
