Time to examine the cause of current catastrophic bushfires

As humans, we are conditioned by our experience, so it is not difficult to understand the city media's reaction to the recent catastrophic bushfires. 

Fire swept through Willawarrin, west of Kempsey, in early November.

The intensity is blamed on climate change, with the assumption if you fix that problem all will be solved. 

As most farmers know, it is part of the problem but not the whole story, as we recall the 1939 Black Friday fires where 2 million acres were burnt, 700 homes lost and 75 people perished.

Climate change is both real and man-made and questioning the science is a no-brainer, but Australia must act within the limits of our economy even though we are only 1.2 per cent of the earth's emissions.
