Boundaries for Bushfires

Boundaries for Bushfires!

A T20 cricket match of a different kind will take place at the WACA Ground on Friday 7 February when sporting codes and media outlets unite to raise funds for a variety of Bushfire Appeal Funds.

Players from across the WACA, West Coast Eagles, Fremantle Dockers, West Coast Fever, Western Force (HODGO AND IAN PRIOR!!) and other sporting clubs will join some of Perth's biggest names in a special T20 cricket match.

100% of net proceeds from ticketing, catering, sponsorship and all other donations for this match will go to the State's bushfire appeal which will raise vital funds for people directly affected by bushfires in Victoria and New South Wales.

Please come along if you can! Tix through Ticketmaster.

Me too. They have more than enough riff raff already.

I think it would set a wonderful example of Christian charity if the WACA just sold the ground to developers and donated the entire proceeds to the Salvation Army for bushfire victim relief.

It would be a a far more sincere act than Twiggy's faux donation to his own climate change deniers' foundation to promote unicorns such as non existent arsonists and selling bushland to the likes of himself, because you know, the leaf accumulation bad, bad.

These comments by Andrew Forrest in the SMH seem a little strange coming from the chairman of a "climate change denier's foundation" :confused:

"Climate change is real. The scale and severity of these bushfires are clear examples of how climate change is intensifying natural disasters. Climate change is presenting us with a huge new challenge, and as these bushfires have demonstrated, we are not yet equipped to handle it........I am championing the transition to a zero-carbon footprint in my businesses, including Fortescue Metals Group, where we are spending hundreds of millions of dollars to transition from diesel and oil to solar and hydrogen."

Wonder how they are going to make GRR a zero carbon business with all the air travel. Plant some trees perhaps.

Easy. Fly Emirates or one of about a dozen outfits that offer a carbon offset option.
PS. Before some cynic pokes holes in this idea -I don't know whether these are effective and/or transparent. ;)

Try 7plus. I've read somewhere that they may show it, but if you search for cricket and bushfires in Google the responses are swamped by the Warne v Ponting match over east this weekend.
