BBC Australia floods: 'I'm angry it's happening again' 12 Mar 2022 By Simon Atkinson

In the past two weeks, floods in eastern Australia have killed at least 21 people. Thousands of homes have been left uninhabitable by one of Australia's worst natural disasters.

"This is the most important existential threat to humanity ever. There are lots of things that grab our attention, like the crisis in Ukraine, and those are shocking tragedies.

"But in the long term, climate change is it."


 …世紀に一度、500年に一度といった形容句は、あるいは過剰なものかもしれない。しかし実際のところ、ここ20~30年というもの問題なく生きて来た土地で連発で災害に遭えば、多少は言いたいことがでてこよう。

 そうして首相からしてAustralia is getting hard to live inというほどである、と。

"Australia is getting hard to live in because of these disasters," said Prime Minister Scott Morrison on a visit to the town on Wednesday.

"We are dealing with a different climate to the one we were dealing with before. I think that's just an obvious fact."


 …日本人に言われたくないだろうが、生きるに厳しい状態のようですよね、ここ数年の災害の記録を思うに。
