It's frustrating that an insufficient plan is in place to address climate change in Oz but also frustrating that I keep reading suggestions that under a different government the fires wouldn't have happened or would've been less destructive. Especially when links are made to the most recent election result, I just find that unrealistic. A different election result recently wouldn't have impacted the fires at all; it might have had an impact on future fire seasons (I still think a small one considering the global nature of the climate challenge) but that's something very different.
