Australian bushfire crisis: global figures and media react to ‘climate emergency’

[Australian Prime Minister Scott] Morrison has been heavily criticised for deflecting any talk of climate change policy during the bushfire crisis. On Thursday, he accepted a link between reducing emissions and protecting the environment but said the government’s climate policies were adequate.

NEVER MINED (January 2)

Combat climate change?
WE. WILL. NOT. 
What is the point? 
Where's the profit?

Tax carbon emissions?
People will cheat.  
It's what we do. 
We can't stop it.

We'll muddle through.
That is our birthright.
And the last person left
will leave on the lights.
