Australia fires: Misleading maps and pictures go viral - BBC News
Vložit
- čas přidán 25. 08. 2024
- Maps and pictures of Australia's unprecedented bushfires have spread widely on social media. Users are posting them to raise awareness of the devastating fires, but some of the viral maps are misleading, spreading disinformation about the crisis.
One image shared widely by Twitter users, including by singer Rihanna, was interpreted as a map showing the live extent of fire spread, with large sections of the Australian coastline molten-red and fiery. But it is actually artist Anthony Hearsey's visualisation of one month of data of locations where fire was detected, collected by Nasa's Fire Information for Resource Management System.
Australia is fighting one of its worst bushfire seasons, fuelled by record-breaking temperatures and months of severe drought.
Since September, at least 25 people have died and thousands have been made homeless.
More than 6.3 million hectares (63,000 sq km or 15.6 million acres) have been burned so far - one hectare is roughly the size of a sports field.

為何沒去滅火，而那些是故意的行為破壞者應該被制裁
I want my voice to reach senior officials. I have an idea to prevent fires from occurring in the forests of Australia, whatever the reason is in record time
2020 is starting with bad things
Problem in your report!
7:10 - you say that greens in turn say that they support back burning and hazard reduction, this however does NOT mean that they would intend to carry out these actions or permit the relinquishment of laws to better allow for personal removal of vegetation to further this goal.
Let me say the same thing as an example to prove my point:
I support back burning, but I do not permit the ACT of back burning.
SEE... big difference. This point is moot. We all know the Greens have been attempting to disallow vegetation removal and extend nature reserves to as many places as possible. EVERY Australian knows this!
For anyone willing to help the Australian Bushfire, check out Charity Shave Co, it was a charity site that is giving free shaving kit to anyone who will donate to them.
I salute all fire fighter's and emergency services 🚒🚨🚔🚑🚁
also every people whoever helped.

DRAMA, that kind of drama will keep the world burning. DONT GET DISTRACTED by drama. Everytime there is a tragedy, they feed you DRAMA and you rush to shove it down your throat, drama.

It’s honestly sad how we can look at this and be like “25 people isn’t much” it shows how much this world has gone to sh*t
No.
Ryan Robinson who said that
Live doesn't stop cause of one fire or pollution.... stay calm and use ur brain, after billions years, earth is still there and Will stay there after our existence, live doesn't depend of us and appears obviously without us.... if we all die , live Will be present somewhere in Univers. Stay calm
25 isn't much for the destruction of humanity. 3 billion would be a lot. When looking at the bigger question of humanities survival as a species or even Australians, 25 is nothing
25 ppl to 7+ billion is not very much at all. That is until it involves someone you know.
"Fun" -fact: Australian government is saying no thx to help offered by lots of other countries. Apparently they think its all under control
@Arctic Fuzz Well looks like they're ruining everything
that goes to prove Morrison is out of touch with reality the Danes offered us help and Morrison snubbed them he sits in his office and doesn’t give a dam . The speeches he’s making now is just trying to get brownie points But it’s too late Mr. Morrison the damage is done
Yeah, and the Prime Minister is out of there.
@Arctic Fuzz we here in Northern countries could help a lot, but can´t come without official request from Australian goverment.
The prime minister sucks

@@alex-yu9yq Who cares about this World War 3 nonsense? These countries need to learn how to communicate properly.
@@JimmyFantage I'm pretty sure everyone would care about world war 3 as now we have control of nuclear weapons and the fact that the last world war killed 60 million people altogether and around 20% were innocent, nuclear weapons could wipe out whole cities like Hiroshima, however I do agree that the countries need to communicate with each other but the only one that has been doing this is the UK as Russia, China, North Korea and America don't trust each other at all and would jump at the chance at war.
@@alex-yu9yq No one wants to jump at the chance for war because otherwise North Korea would have used their nuclear weapons like they didn't shut up about for the last decade.
@@JimmyFantage True however they did try to scare people by says they had a Christmas surprise but nothing happened, but the reason why other countries could jump for war is that it benefited them for example Russia would possibly help Iran assist with their revenge if the US continue bombing as Russia and the US aren't exactly on good terms, while you are right about North Korea the problem was that no one took them seriously because the idiots kept messing up and accidently bombing themselves, hell they have been trying to make long range missiles since the 80s and still can't e.g. them to work properly.
“A billion animals may die”
...
*”AND 24 PEOPLE HAVE DIED”*
oh ma gud
Its 1/7 peoples
he didnt exaggerate it
Yes, indeed and of course. And you are right, but keep in mind that humans are more resourceful, and have way more assistance than wild animals. Those animals have no assurance, they do not have assistance, they are alone, they are panicking and they are lost. Countless of them died, burned to death. They are a very important part of the environment, without them, trees and plants can't reproduce, and if we don't save them... you can be sure that Australia gonna be a giant desert just in a few decades or less. Keep that in mind too. But yes, again, and I agree with you on that point... people and the media focus their attention mostly on animals for some strange reason. But in some way, there is a reason for that, and you know why now -- But don't worry, people are aware of those terrible humans loss because of those fires!

Bullshit to get clicks/
Load of shit. Im in australia and we cant even see nothing, how are they seeing smoke from there?
In case you're wondering how the fires started here are some facts:
Australia has hottest year on record, then hottest December on record, then hottest day on record then another hottest day on record,
Australia has massive drought,
Australian government allows large scale water stealing heavily reducing the amount of water in drought struck areas, (this killed over 1 million river fish)
New South Wales state government reduces firefighting funding by 75%
Australian government refuses to talk to the "Greeny firefighters" because they believe in climate change and that large bush fires will become common
Finally, Australia is extremely hot, with almost no water. Lightning then strikes starting some small fires, the firefighters don't have enough funding to stop them, then as the fires get bigger more and more accidental fires are created, arsonists also start making small fires. Eventually the fire services are completely overwhelmed and what should be an easy fix now becomes a multi-state catastrophe.
Finally someone who gets it.
Why are there arsonists? What would compel them to make the problem worse?
Thank you
Spot on
@@alyssahansen1400 People have different reasons, it's crazy. But I remember meeting a girl at a party years ago in a fire season, that told me she wanted to light our local area on fire because it turned her on :\
" Money is more important than being able to live in a country that can sustain human life " . A quote by the Australian government !

Don't forget BBC's misleading claim about the bushfires burning through more than 8 *billion* hectares of land at 0:02, that's basically the whole country burning down if that's the case.
Just taking a quote from Wikipedia at the time of this comment, the fires have burned through *10.7 million hectares* of land. No where near the billion figure claimed 😂
Enjoy dang I'm glad I saw this comment
The entire area of the country isn't even 800,000,000 hectares...
Not only that 8B hectares is larger than Russia.

it was a mistake obviously, he probably meant 8 million, still a very large number

Politicians of all stamps are going to come out badly from this -and deservedly so. Cuts to fire service budgets, over-regulation of fire-prevention measures and misplaced environmentalist concern for the habitats of plants and animals have all contributed to the tragedy.
PJ Brown
Too true. How many of them are going to turn out to be Extinction Rebellion nutjobs, I wonder? I gather that many are juveniles and cannot therefore be publicly identified.
Fire chiefs have corrected the misinformation that over-regulation or environmentalists have prevented hazard reduction. It’s mainly lack of opportunity due to the longer fire season and shorter , hotter, dryer winters. Ie, far fewer days when it’s safe to control burn. Plus cuts to staffing and budgets leaving the burns to the volunteer fire brigades who work full time in their real jobs. The Green Party supports hazard reduction and control burns. A coordinated bot campaign has been pushing the line blaming environmentalists. It’s simply not true.
PJ Brown There are always firebugs every summer. They face similar jail sentences as murderers: up to 25 years. There are no more than any other summer. The ‘arson’ thesis has been s spread by a coordinated bot campaign - over 30% of tweets on one popular hashtag analysed by a data professor. It’s very sinister that someone is intentionally pushing this lie and stoking anger and division, when Australia needs correct facts in order to deal with this crisis.
Hanny Hawkins
At least we will know the truth if the trials are covered properly.
Hanny Hawkins
This is still very much up for debate. The regulations involving fire prevention measures to be undertaken by private citizens and small organisations are horrendously complex . It is certainly true that extensive areas of national parks have been allowed to go wild due to misguided attempts to protect rare plants and fauna. Banning stock grazing must have had a tremendous impact, to say nothing of restricting public access.
You may have seen this, but it is the video that a small section was taken from in this news item. It speaks volumes.

Most of them are started by arsonists.
Bushfires happen every year but Australia has been in severe drought. It's hot and dry so a natural fire given the right climate will spread/various ones will pop up and they'll quickly grow.
There's been a few people arrested but it's more over people burning brush in their yard during a burn ban (doubtful this caused a huge fire but it did enhance conditions for the other fires to continue raging).
@shredded guy not all our fires are started by arson, dry lightning, power lines, glass, etc, etc. It's fire season, some of those people probably breached the fire bans.
Moat of the bushfires were started by arsonists in rural New South Wales, which then spread to Queensland and then to Victoria.

I'm an Australian. Congratulations BBC, your report is quite fair and balanced. I've got two minor gripes.
1). The Victorian government has dismally/criminally failed to comply with the hazard reduction recommendations of the Royal Commission after that fire ten years ago that took some 175 lives. Massive amounts of fuel has been building for at least 8 years and ignored by the government.
2). The Greens have constantly, deliberately and systematically stifled winter hazard reduction "burn-offs" throughout the country. I hold these city dwelling, academic theorists culpable. Of course the billion plus native animals that have perished are victims of the Greens.
Another fact. Around 200 people have been arrested for arson! A high proportion are kids, and apparently in their statements, a common justification is they are "just proving climate change is real". Australia is enduring an utter tragedy for many, many reasons.

Guess we now know where the 20 million trees are being planted
Time Bender Not on Kangaroo island there won't be, after all the trouble the Aus government has gone to to clear the way for the new lithium mine. The burnt tract along the east coast is the foundation for a new high-speed rail link, so no trees required there either

Susi Engelhardt awww that so nice of you
Susi Engelhardt thanks for the support, hopefully no one gets harmed in the fire, I'm in Australia and I see a lot of smoke but idk what to do bec I'm 13 but you helped me with the situation 😊
Australian govt is totally useless can't believe it that it's been over a month and yet they failed to control fire
@@ksivsclowns8152 have a bug out bag ready if u havent yet. Preparing for the most likely environmental emergencies is to me a sane response. Heres its food insecurity n flooding that most risk. I was getting really stupidly high anxiety till i figured out my emergency plans. Prepare as if the gov doesnt exist. I dont know of any specific aussie resources, but the prepping community is likely a good start, tho those can b full of fear-porn. I really feel for those in ur generation who aware of wider world issues. Its hard as an adult n i have prob more agency than you do, despite disability. Most parents r unlikely to get onboard. Mine havent. Do what u can n what u must regardless (within the law obviously) the yt chann 'rain country' has a vid with good argument i think would convince most numbskulled parents xD 'why we prep' i think it was called. American christian conservative homesteading couple, but not the type to shove it down ur throat
Goodluck kiddo 🖒

Please god help them 😭😭
This is heart breaking.
As an Australian I can say that everything addressed in this seems correct. Except one thing. While more people did die during Black Friday (2009) the land mass of the recent fires is almost 10x larger than before.
Another thing is that it co-incides with a hot period happening every 11 years (a solar cycle) and over 200 people have been arrested for arson. In principle the mass shouldn’t of been so large had the greens aloud more back burning but people are lighting these intentionally
