Really tired of hearing the blatant Right Wing lie that "environmentalists" and "greenies" are to blame for the bushfires. They trot it out every summer. The Greens are said to have banned hazard reduction. How they could do that I cannot imagine.
I took the trouble to read the Greens policy on bushfires. It strikes me as eminently sensible, and much of it is already followed or observed by rural fire services. There is NO demand for a ban on hazard reduction. Here's what they state:
"Hazard reduction, including manual, mechanical and hazard reduction burning activities should be strategically planned to protect the community and vulnerable assets while minimising the adverse impacts of these activities on the environment."
But it won't silence the RWFWs of politics and the Murdochracy, where ideology trumps knowledge, science and commonsense every time.
