blitheringmcgonagall: jadepresley: gins-potter: Found this really good thread on twitter explaining what exactly is happening in Australia right now, because I haven’t seen much on Tumblr. And because I don’t think the thread touched on it, when Scott Morrison, our PM finally did visit the affected areas he forced the residents to shake his hand (literally forced, he grabbed a woman’s hand even though she said no) and then walked away when they tried to talk about the situation and ask for help. Google his name and you’ll find videos. This thread gives some insight to those not in Australia about how bad things are right now.To update: the human death toll is now at 17.Countless more animals have been lost over the last two days, adding to that half a billion total. That’s not a typo. Half a BILLION.500 homes were lost over new years alone.People where I live and all around the state can’t go outside without masks on because the air is getting so hard to breathe. And this is expected to continue for months. Read this.Look at that map.Half a billion animals, 17 people, thousands of homes.Fuck those politicians.Whoever says climate change isn’t real is lying.If you can, donate to the NSW RFS. If not, reblog this… -- source link
