Energy & Environmental Newsletter - Australian Fires

John Droz, Jr., Physicist & Citizen Advocate

One of the top stories globally has been the horrifically bad bushfires in Australia. Unfortunately the mainstream media has latched onto that as another "proof" that the world has been infected with "global warming" (e.g. here and here).   What this really proves instead is that what seems to be intuitive is often not true. Below are some sample reports and articles that undermine the climate change connection claims:

• Dr. Spencer: Are Australia Bushfires Worsening from Human-Caused Climate Change? 
• The Truth About the Australian Bushfires
• A scientist's 2015 Warning (that was largely ignored)

Note 1: We recommend reading the Newsletter on your computer, not your phone, as some documents (e.g. PDFs) are much easier to read on a large computer screen¦We've tried to use common fonts, etc. to minimize display issues.

Note 2: Originally this was a monthly Newsletter. However, as pertinent material proliferated, it has been issued more frequently. As a guideline, once we collect a hundred worthwhile articles, a new Newsletter will be issued on the following Monday. Recently this has resulted in a once every three weeks frequency, and occasionally once every two weeks.

Note 3: To accommodate numerous requests received about prior articles, we've put together detailed archives where you can search by year, or over the ten+ years of the Newsletter.

Note 4: Our intention is to put some balance into what most people see from the mainstream media about energy, environmental and education issues¦ If you want to know our perspective on current events, please read the Big Picture New Year/New Decade commentary.

Note 5: Please pass the Newsletter on to open-minded citizens, and link to it on your social media sites. If there are others who you think would benefit from being on our Energy & Environmental email list, please let me know. If at any time you'd like to be taken off this free distribution, simply send me an email saying that.

Note 6: This Newsletter is intended to supplement the material on our website, WiseEnergy.org. (For wind warriors, the most important page there is the Winning page.)

Note 7: I am not an attorney, so no material appearing in any of the Newsletters (or the WiseEnergy.org. website) should be construed as giving legal advice. My recommendation has always been: consult a competent, licensed attorney when you are involved with legal issues.
