If you want to tell people that, you ought to be sure that global warming actually has a significant impact.

I don't know about Australia, but I know that the vast majority of fires in the US are caused directly by humans. Something like 90+% of them are started artificially(not by lightning strikes or something along those lines), which is kinda sad.

But is climate change necessarily making the situation worse? How great would the Australia fires be if this was the year 2000?

Are the fires worse because of global warming? Kinda hard for me to say with certainty, but I doubt it makes that big of a difference at this point.

Marsupials are proof that Australia's climate has been hostile for a long time.

Eucalyptus trees are evolved to make oil that volatizes in heat, and makes the atmosphere of entire valleys combustible in the dry season.

Australia being on fire is just Australia.
