Here in Canberra, it feels like I'm living in a space station on a toxic planet; I haven't seen blue skies in a month. See this chart (https://air-quality.com/place/australia/australian-capital-territory/be182a98?lang=en&standard=aqi_us https://air-quality.com/place/australia/australian-capital-t...) which has air pollution literally OFF their chart ranges. Hearing the drivel spewing from our PM and other politicians; It's always the same pandering responses with no real strategic change. It's beyond frustrating. We will have to be destroyed (are being?) before anyone admits there is are real problems requiring real actions. I have noticed that at a more local level of government, the messaging has changed and is more serious now. Here are some thought bubbles; * more aggressive back-burning and fuel load management: managed at a federal level by law. * stop all new coal, keep replacing with ?whatever?, including a reappraisal of nuclear. * start retreating populations back towards cities: reverse the sprawl into protected urban bubbles. * start requiring building to have ventilation and filtering systems that can handle smoke better, and are more efficient at sealing air: I've heard many people complain about smokey insides: happens to me too ! * stricter criminal penalties for any arson related crimes. * restrictions on tourism to risky areas during the fire season. Either that or we finally DO become a giant desert from coast to coast: should be safe enough then!
