Key points:March 2 was the first time in 240 days that not a single wildfire was burning in AustraliaFire historian Stephen J. Pyne told RN Breakfast humans were pushing the planet to the opposite of an Ice Age — a new age of fire that he calls the Pyrocene.
Mr Pyne, an emeritus professor at Arizona State University, said Australia had been a fire continent for millions of years but that the Black Saturday fires in 2009 and the most recent 2019-2020 fire season marked a new era. Thirty years ago, Mr Pyne wrote the definitive history of fire in Australia and has just released an updated version of his book, Still Burning Bush.
He said humans had become the "keystone species" for fire, turbo-charging the coming together of industrial fire and wildfire.
Lol
Did Tyrone write that headline? 'is be upon us' ? No one is buying this shit matey, how do you scour the depths to find a fucking fire historian and how the fuck would he know what the climate is doing?
A global fire historian? Hahahaha!! Not if the rain BOMB doesn’t come first and put out the Fire age first!
What a load of crap propoganda!
😂😂😂😂😂😂
😂😂. fakenews
What a JOKE ABC is! Your title doesn't even make sense! FAKENEWS
Young people suck it up here it comes
My only question is, are they an 'expert'?
“There be dragons”, warns global dragonologist expert with beard, Fledgely von Snipple.
Quite a ratio.
“Is be upon us”?
The ABC is utter crap.
Go home ABC you're drunk
Or in other words... People are starting to realise the global warming panic is bullshit, so we're ramping up the rhetoric to try and squeeze out some more money while we still can.
Didn’t even get “no rain till May” or something like that right. We’re not exactly goldfish. Our memories persist.
Can we shut down ABC already?
Fire age! 😂 oh boy what will they come up with next?
Hippy typists at the ABThee at it again.
FollowTheMoney
Bullshit!
Heh! The 'liar age'.
LOL oh bless.
Looks like the bots are hard at work replying here. Must be backed by the LNP. From Russia with love.
Jeebus! Give it a rest TheirABC. You have NO credibility left. DefundTheABC
Add it to the list
This is beyond parody
Joking? No one judged for 6 months bushfire.
Note how is reported. The form of a quote but the impact of a statement of position. THIS is how TheirABC spends OurMoney
ABC as easy as 123
You lot get more shrill by the day.
What a load of crap once again ABC pushing this nonsense
No, what are really looking at here is a cult. Nothing more, just a cult.
Have to give them credit, new ways to keep funding rolling in. Is a fire historian an actual thing?
More FakeNews from a FakeNews Organization....theirABC
🙄 I guess “climate emergency” didn’t have the desired effect so now we’re giving Pyrocene a spin.
Another ABC false alarm
'And the great Pyrocene is be upon us' whatever magical turn of phrase ABC thinks that is?
And, lo, the fire burned the parched landscape, and the ‘global fire historian’ saw that it was good.
