Let’s talk about what’s happening in Australia, which is suffering its worst bushfire season in recorded history.
This almost unimaginable catastrophe has killed half a billion animals and released over 250 million tonnes of CO2 so far.

Australia has had many bad bushfire seasons. The 1851 season saw 5,000,000 hectares burned. In 1951/1952 it was 4,000,000 hectares. In 1984/1985 it was 3,500,000 hectares. This time it’s 5,900,000 hectares SO FAR. A size comparison with some other fires:pic.twitter.com/3nQmUxNmxc
According to Australia’s environment minister, up to 30% of koalas on the New South Wales mid-north coast may have been killed by the fires. This area is home to a large number of Australia’s koalas - population estimate was 15,000-28,000.pic.twitter.com/oagLomgnxe
What we are seeing here, and what these brave fire and rescue workers are facing, are the devastating effects of anthropogenic climate change. This isn’t just a few trees burning away, it’s home, hope and nature. It’s our prospects for a decent future.pic.twitter.com/wyara3PoMd
For more information on the tragic situation in Australia, I recommend following climate activist and Australian native @elle_desylva, whose timeline is always awash with great information.
To help koalas, you can donate to @WIRES_NSW.
Please retweet their tweets too.pic.twitter.com/4QtD4BzcZq
@RedCrossAU are also looking for donations.
Another thing you can do to help is amplify the alerts put out by @NSWRFS by retweeting them.
Even if you aren’t in Australia, you may have Australian followers and followers with Australian followers.
Worldwide effort, please!!pic.twitter.com/KsCcRSNAqW
Please do what you can to spread the message.
Australia is far from many of us but we are in this together. We humans created this crisis and it’s up to all of us to fix it.
This time it’s Australia but the climate crisis knows no borders...

I just gave $50 to @WIRES_NSW.
I hope you will either make a donation or, if you can’t do that right now, share this tweet and thread to spread the word.
This organisation works hard to help wildlife, including koalas.
Here is their site:

As this thread has done quite well, I decided to add a little koala trivia and a few more videos in the mini-thread below. The wildlife foundation information is repeated, and any donations will be appreciated. https://twitter.com/goodoldcatchy/status/1213128458328514561?s=21 …https://twitter.com/goodoldcatchy/status/1213128458328514561 …
The retweets of this thread are starting to slow down now so I just want to say thank you to everyone that donated to @WIRES_NSW and @RedCrossAU after seeing it.
I got a fair few DMs from people saying they’ve chipped in a few dollars. Thank you!pic.twitter.com/pJSSx94d7r
We have a huge fight ahead of us because climate change isn’t going away. Environmental conditions are changing because of us, which means bigger storms and worse fires and droughts. Twitter is just one place we can brainstorm, gather donations and put pressure on politicians.pic.twitter.com/HIVnYUgU75
Seeing how many people shared this thread gave me a lot of hope for the future. I don’t think we should count ourselves out yet. A lot of people left comments and did quote tweets showing they care very deeply about animals and plant and insect life.pic.twitter.com/KhZxRfFCIG
