A useful chart, but out of date. According to it I live in a zone of warm summers and cool winters. Our summers now seem to be over 30 degrees on most days (peaking at 42), and our winters are over 20 degrees on most days.

I do not doubt that the climate in Australia has changed in recent years. I simply argue that your current climate is not unprecedented which undermines the presumption that CO2 is to blame
In another thread I shared data on your 1,000 year climate record.

Day 2 of smoke haze. Today it's bad enough that my eyes started stinging a little when I first stepped outside. Not Melbourne bad, but still not good.
Every so often you can see a passing truck draging a smokey cloud behind it. (I live on a main highway)

No, it does not. In any way. There is literally no logical connection between your claim and the conclusion you are drawing from it. If you are trying to point at the fact that at points in geological history the earth has been this warm before... well, ummm, yeah. And it took *thousands* of years to undergo that warming. Very, very gradually. Not all at once in a few decades with no end in sight.

There was a story in todays news about an area that had had a fire go through on Jan 1st.
It fell today and started burning. Turns out it had been smouldering on the inside for the last 29 days or so.
If it had fallen tommorow when the fire risk looks like being much higher it would likely have started a new fire.

Well I once again cite actual data to refute the BS.

You folks will no doubt reject the data as right wing Christian propaganda.

The same right wing propagandist that you linked to earlier.

The one with a reputation for outright falsehoods.

I checked out your link fly.
Good for a laugh, full of portentously announced "facts", that are easily disproved, and with such an obvious agenda, that I'm surprised any adult could give it any credence.
