#LAfires is depressing proof of the conclusion I came to decades ago as #climatechange reporter. Humans are just not up to dealing with it. Certainly #democracy, which contains the seeds of its own destruction, can't seem to rise to the political or practical challenges. Tell me it's not true

#auspolitics So I have to watch the senate for just 1 bill to pass that matters to a lot of people around the world. 24 bills on the list today & at 5pm not 1 passed but an hour spent on valedictory speeches for 1 senator. Yawn. Their job is to pass laws, you'd think. It's going to be a long night
