Have you protected your home against external fire?
Residents St Arnaud are told not to rely on fire crews to evacuate them, after lessons from the Lake Ōhau wildfire, and with predictions of more days of extreme fire risk due to climate change. Locals are urged to "firesmart" their homes, and replace vegetation with less flammable plants but some villagers want more firebreaks near the village. Do you think enough is being done to protect vulnerable communities from wildfire?

HACKED FACEBOOK HELP
Partner recently had Facebook account hacked and person is using it for bitcoin and getting other peoples accounts.
Facebook won’t respond to help so does any one know of people who can help or what to do.
So maddening.
