Yesterday was the hottest I experienced since I arrived in the city of Ryde, just west of Sydney, early in 1990. After church, I spent the rest of the day in close contact with a faithful electric fan until I retired to bed to spend the night spread-eagled like an expiring star-fish. I never knew air could be so hot. I thought of those who have limited excess to power and water supplies and wonder what will happen as climate change continues and climate change affects and limits all our lives.
We really must find ways of being better stewards with the resources we have, for we can never take energy for granted and need to explore and invest in suitable alternative energy resources like solar energy, for example before we run out of oil.
When it is 44 degrees one can do little but think, and drain my late father-in-law's Warragamba Dam just that little bit more.
