"So even the rain that falls isn’t actually going to fill our dams and our river systems, and that’s a real worry for the people in the bush." - Tim Flannery (Australia's (unofficial) chief climate mongo in 2007). Meanwhile, it rained so much in Australia in 2010-11 that the sea level fucking dropped by 1/4" and in 2022 Australia had wide spread record flooding again (Hunga Tonga related).
