This firsthand account of the 2009 Aus-
tralian bushfires is a vivid reminder that perception of events is acquired not
through one sensory modality but rather from the synthesized experience
of simultaneous perceptions associated with an event. In the case of a brush
fire, these are smoke (olfactory), heat (tactile), crackling flames (auditory),
and the motion and color of flames (visual). -
“As the firefront approached, the sky blackened. Spotfires broke out as blaz-
ing embers fell from the heavens. The heat intensified and a blistering wind,
whipped up by the change of air pressure caused by the fire sucking in oxy-
gen, sounded like a freight train.” -
Koalas in NSW were predicted to be extinct in the wild by 2050 after the Black Summer fires. Now they’re officially endangered.
Meanwhile, it’s not governments leading the charge — it’s small local groups planting trees and rebuilding habitat, one patch at a time.
This is what real action looks like. -

Study finds Tasmanian native forest logging increases potential for more severe bushfires
"Logging worsens bushfires because regrowth eucalyptus trees are highly flammable in comparison to mature trees, which act as "green fire breaks...A fire expert says mature forests can "act as a buffer" to slow bushfires, whereas regrowth eucalypts are more flammable."
"The study has found around a fifth of Tasmanian tall wet forest is regrowth under 40 years old, largely a result of intensive logging and recent fires."
"Professor Bowman said this raised concerns around community safety and the sustainability of the state's timber industry."

Australia’s alpine ash forests are now officially endangered.
"Intensifying fire seasons are threatening this balance to the extent the Federal Government has just officially listed this forest type as an endangered ecosystem. This means these forests face a high risk of collapse or extinction. "
"It is also an important part of First Nations cultural landscapes – in north-east Victoria, the Taungurung people harvested Bogong moths (or Deberra) when the moths migrated to mountain forests where alpine ash is a key part of the landscape. " >>

After 60 years, the proof is in: logging Tasmania’s wet forests makes them MORE flammable, not less.
Regrowth from clearfells burns hotter and more intensely than old-growth — denser canopies, drier microclimates, leaves closer to the fuel on the ground. A 2019 bushfire gave scientists the perfect natural experiment, and the data is clear.
Old-growth forests are our best defence against worsening bushfires. Time to end native forest logging in Tassie. Protect what’s left.

We have the proof that logging makes Tasmania’s forests more flammable
Lots of regrowth, lots more fire"Regrowth does indeed burn more intensely than mature forests. Some experts suggested forests regrowing from logging were a key factor in the huge area burned during the notorious 2019–20 fire season, though others have disputed this."
"Recent research has shown commercial thinning of regrowth in Tasmania doesn’t reduce the risk of fire, because bark, limbs and smashed trunks left after logging act as fuel." >>

To enrich a few while harming the rest of us
"Rollback of government’s ability to limit climate-heating pollution from vehicles will make families ‘sicker and less safe’..Trump’s EPA repeals landmark climate finding in gift to ‘billionaire polluters’."
"Repealing the Endangerment Finding takes Orwellian governance to new heights and invites enormous damage to people and property around the world."
"The final rule removes the government’s ability to impose requirements to track, report and limit climate-heating pollution from cars and trucks. Transportation is the largest source of climate pollution in the US."
“If this reckless decision survives legal challenges, it will lead to more deadly wildfires, more extreme heat deaths, more climate-driven floods and droughts, and greater threats to communities nationwide – all while the EPA dismisses the overwhelming science that has protected public health for decades.'

Small persistent humid forest clearings drive tropical forest biomass losses
"Tropical forests store about half of the global forest above ground carbon (AGC), yet extensive areas are affected by disturbances, such as deforestation from agricultural expansion and degradation from fires, selective logging, and edge effects...Findings highlight the disproportionate impact of small clearings on tropical carbon losses, suggesting the need to curb land-use changes and protect young and recovering forests."

The impact of megafires on biodiversity
Fires are becoming more severe, extensive, and frequent due to human-caused climate change.
“The impact of bushfires on wildlife can be catastrophic. Native animals are often unable to escape fires and are highly vulnerable to death, dehydration, disorientation, burns, injury, and the loss of food and habitat."

Through the heatwave haze, the hypocrisy of Australia’s fossil fuel policy shines bright
"The heatwave that blanketed much of Australia in early January was five times more likely to occur now than before human-caused global heating changed the climate." World Weather Attribution
"The focus in 2026 is increasingly likely to turn to the nation’s huge fossil fuel exports, an area where the government – which declares it is committed to trying to limit global heating to just 1.5C, a goal rapidly fading from view – remains blatantly hypocritical...Thermal coal expansions still get the greenlight."

Victorian bushfire update from the ABC:
"Watch and Act warnings have been raised around two bushfires currently burning out-of-control in Victoria.
"Communities to the east of the fire burning in Longwood have been urged to leave, as the bushfire moves in an easterly direction towards Strathbogie State Forest and Bonnie Doon.
"This includes the following communities:
"Ancona, Barjarg, Boho South, Bonnie Doon, Creek Junction, Dry Creek, Euroa, Gobur, Gooram, Kanumbra, Kelvin View, Kithbrook, Lima East, Lima South, Maindample, Marraweeney, Merton, Sheans Creek, Strathbogie, Strathbogie North, Strathbogie South, Tallangallook, Too-rour and Woodfield.
"Residents near a bushfire burning west of Walwa are also being told to prepare to leave immediately.
"This includes residents in these communities:
"Biggara, Corryong, Cudgewa, Thowgla, Thowgla Upper, Thowgla Valley, Towong and Towong Upper."
