Always Someone Gonna Bring Us Down

Also from news.com.au,  there's this cheery perspective:
Musician Anthony Hegarty also fired up at another point, accusing the politicians and spin-masters on the show of ignoring climate change and taking advantage of indigenous communities in exchange for mining royalties.
Where are you all going to be with all that money and nothing left to eat and nothing left to drink and nowhere to go,” said the Antony and The Johnsons band member in response to a comment from political consultant Grahame Morris about the deal with indigenous communities over uranium mining.
“Do you think you’re going to f**k off to paradise elsewhere that you’re going to ascend to heaven?
“What are you thinking? You gotta dream forward, you got to wake up.”
Earlier, Mr Hergarty said 50 per cent of the world’s species will be extinct in the next 70 years and that unless governments “changed track” we were “all doomed”.
“You’re doomed, I’m doomed and your children will be doomed,” he added.

Fun times, everybody !
