> The effects of climate change have not yet been detected in Australian fires, but changes underway suggest that those effects will be detectable as early as the 2040s. If so we should expect, more and more intense fires, and respond accordingly.
This plain English that the author suggests is not fair, like he suggests. The author's other articles seem to want to downplay climate change fears, but the "inconvenient" facts seem to disagree with him. A fairer summary would be closer to:
> The effects of climate change have not yet been detected in the Australian Bush fires. The effects of climate change have already been confirmed to potentially cause fires in the Amazon, Mediterranean, Scandinavia, and Western North America. Australian fires are projected to be impacted by climate change in approximately 20 years.
This link has better facts IMO: https://sciencebrief.org/briefs/wildfires https://sciencebrief.org/briefs/wildfires
