What about all the government & insurance charges which might stop people from being able to start rebuilding?

Why should one pay for insurance if the insurance companies won't help in these sorts of situations?

How do people survive natural disasters if they don't have insurance?

Are any charities supporting those who need help with funds and resources for rebuilding?

Isn't Samaritan's Purse one of the charitable organizations that is helping local churches in Australia to set up relief efforts?

~Wunder

Don't the usual charitable funds in Australia include The Smith Family, Vinnies (St Vincents), Salvation Army (Sallies), Red Cross & also Anglicare?

Aren't makers such as crocheters and knitters also helping the surviving animals by making pouches, mittens, nests, and beds?

Is it true what I heard this morning, that all the bushfires in Australia are now either out or successfully contained?

Haven't you heard that last weekend's torrential storms, which left part of Sydney without power, also finished off the bushfires as well as filling up Warragamba Dam from 40% to over 60%?

Have the power companies gotten the electricity back on for the poor citizens of Sydney?

~Wunder

Doesn't that depend on whether the power lines are overhead as in older parts of Sydney, rather than underground as is more likely in outer suburbs?

How long does it take to get the power back on?

Wouldn't that depend on what caused the power cut?

Doesn't that also depend on when the next shower of rain is due to fall?

Would it matter if the rain was unusual for this time of year?
