I was watching a documentary about the reef recently, it has had periods where it dies off and regenerates etc just like anything. As for the fires, it wouldn't be a problem if they did burnoffs and managed it properly... Something the natives managed to do for tens of thousands of years. * +

Not exactly the topic for it, but:

'Perhaps the most amazing fire adaptation is that some species actually require fire for their seeds to sprout. Some plants, such as the lodgepole pine, Eucalyptus, and Banksia, have serotinous cones or fruits that are completely sealed with resin. These cones/fruits can only open to release their seeds after the heat of a fire has physically melted the resin. Other species, including a number of shrubs and annual plants, require the chemical signals from smoke and charred plant matter to break seed dormancy. Some of these plants will only sprout in the presence of such chemicals and can remain buried in the soil seed bank for decades until a wildfire awakens them.' * +

Maybe the koalas should go extinct. Fire is nature's renewal tool and if they've been evolutionary delinquents and cannot escape perhaps nature has selected them for extinction. * +

We can't wait millions of years for megafauna to reappear, let alone small animals like the koala
which we owe our descendants * +

And besides, we need higher oxygen levels, which the Earth had a long time ago, for large animals to evolve

The intensity of these current wildfires owe their origin in man-made industrial activities and other factors * +

A lot of issues here are really caused by mismanagement of resources etc it's just become too trendy to point the finger at climate change.

Drought? Is it a drought when you have cotton farmers syphoning off many thousands of mega litres of water for their own needs? Using perfectly good drinking water to wash coal while you make people in rural areas drink recycled water? The list goes on. * +
