A glimpse of things to come

I’ve read that the government is paying to transport water into the affected areas. Also read that trees are being felled due to their water consumption and some farmers have simply shut up shop. Sounds very bad. I recall this time last year that it was abnormally hot in Australia so it looks much the same this year - unfortunately. Keep hydrated.

Thank ktnez. Dairy farmers in Queensland are selling their herds, graziers are downsizing flocks of sheep and beef cattle and are buying in food at exorbitant prices. There is a drought relief concert here in town today (Saturday) to raise money to pay for free fodder for animals because the farmers are doing it really badly. Have not heard about cutting trees down because they suck up water, but there are trees that are useful for stock food and some of those are being utilised.
 
Things have certainly changed in the last few years and it's not just farmers who are affected, witness the increasing fires and floods. However , we needn't worry because Mr Trump says that climate change is just a hoax.:eek:

The only thing I like about Trump is his missus.

It ain’t sounding good. This is climate change. We all need to stand up to those who want to brainwash the masses that it’s not.
 
It may well be "Climate change" but, the difference of agreement is on what is causing it? Man made or a natural change which has been witnessed before?
I'm afraid that little Miss Climate Change has some double standards to explain.:(

Climate change is cyclical but too many people put too much strain on resources. One more generation at this rate of expansion and then wars over water. The world needs a one child policy for three generations to reduce the levels of people pollution. :whistle:
 
Ever seen "Rumpole of the Bailey" over in Oz Grenville? It's how he referred to his Mrs. She who must be obeyed:thumbsup:

Warm and sunny in west Norfolk today, going to be a bit damp tomorrow morning!

Thanks Mate. A couple or few middle sized cyclones could be helpful.
