The Climate is changing incredibly rapidly. I have always been skeptical of the official narrative of glacially slow change over hundreds of years. It seems to me that change is not linear. It is usually the case that things carry on the way they are until they stop! Abruptly.
I have a cataclysmic view of Climate. For example, what froze mammoths so fast that the buttercups in their stomachs were still fresh when they were pulled from the permafrost and dissected? That is a lot of meat to flash-freeze.
Every day you read about climate models failing to predict correctly. There are so many unknown feedback loops.

I told my wife that, when it hits 50c in Browns Plains - we head to Tasmania. People scoff when I say that. The hottest ever for this month was 42.2c in 2014.

I bought a 23 acre bush block on the east coast. No power, no water. That is my bolt hole.

One thing that keeps me occupied is Climate Change, and what I can do to assist my small tribe of kids and grandkids.
In the final analysis, that will be to die and pass my home on to them, but I figure I can do stuff in the mean time :)

I am a 72 year old "self funded retiree". That sounds like I have a stack of money, but that is BS for me and probably a lot of other people. I don't qualify for a pension because I bought a second property 20 years ago, that my son has been living in ever since, paying a modest rent. I am not going to kick him out onto the street..
So, no pension for me, except for $460 month from the UK from when I paid tax there, 40 years ago! We manage, because we own our home and had the foresight to go Solar years ago when the gov paid us 50cents a Kwh as a feed in tariff. So - no rent and no power bills - the two financial killers in 2022. But we run our little economy on the smell of an oil rag, get a lot of satisfaction eating some home grown veggies when they grow, and finding bargains in Op-shops.
This is the other side of the Boomer phenomenon.
@kieranmahon see how it unfurls . . it a bolt hole . . and may become a really lovely bolt hole . . #bolthole
