The BC Climate Emergency Campaign's 2025 report shows that the BC government is backtracking on climate action which is making life more unaffordable for everyday British Columbians. Check it out: bcclimateemergency.ca/progress-rep... With @drmelissalem.bsky.social @emikonewman.bsky.social

By approving Ksi Lisims, the BC gov has chosen the side of the fossil fuel industry at the exact moment global markets are shifting to renewables. Piece by Dr. Melissa Lem (@cape-bc.bsky.social), Kai Nagata (@dogwoodbc.bsky.social) & Emiko Newman (BCCEC). bcclimateemergency.ca/in-the-news-...

We joined hereditary leaders from Wet’suwet’en and Gitxsan, the City of Victoria and Stand.earth to speak at a press conference to kick off the fall session of the BC Legislature. We’re calling for respect for First Nations rights and title and real climate action, not more subsidies for polluters.

Sleepless nights, diesel smells and smoke that “smells like burnt plastic.” Some Kitimat, B.C., residents say LNG Canada’s startup is making life unbearable. @writermjs.bsky.social reports thenarwhal.ca/kitimat-lng-...

Governments & fossil fuel companies call LNG “low-carbon.” But LNG Canada will unleash 36M tonnes CO₂/yr, equal to 9.5 coal plants or 8M cars. Far from a "clean" energy source. 🎧 Listen to the full episode & more stories that dig deeper into the climate crisis: www.climateemergencyunit.ca/podcast

"These big great leaders are watching what Netanyahu can get away with in Gaza.” Booker Prize–winning author Arundhati Roy tells @mehdirhasan.bsky.social about the parallels between Modi’s India and Netanyahu’s Israel in their mistreatment of Muslims under their rule.

An Al Jazeera journalist is among 15 Palestinians killed in an Israeli attack on the Nasser hospital in Khan Younis, southern Gaza. At least three other journalists were killed in the attack.

The attack also killed Reuters photojournalist Hussam al-Masri, as well as journalists Mariam Abu Daqqa & Moaz Abu Taha.

UN-backed experts declared famine in Gaza for the first time. “The Gaza famine is the world’s famine,” UN aid chief Tom Fletcher said. “For humanity’s sake, let us in.” Watch Fletcher’s unfiltered interview with @mehdirhasan.bsky.social, from earlier this summer: zeteo.com/p/un-humanit...

Did you know Canada is now an official exporter of LNG? Let’s get honest about what this means for the climate crisis 🎧 Listen on our website, Apple or Spotify Catch up on Break In Case of Emergency. Real stories, real stakes, real hope. 🔗 Listen on Apple/Spotify #TruthInClimate

LNG Canada has been operating for just over a month in Kitimat, B.C. What are the implications of Canada becoming an LNG exporter? Check out this new episode!👇🏼

Everything you wanted to know about LNG but were afraid to ask. New podcast episode ft. Kiki Wood of @stand.earth, @emikonewman.bsky.social of the @bcclimateemergency.bsky.social and @climateunit.bsky.social, and Clark Williams-Derry of the Institute for Energy Economics and Financial Analysis.

We are doing this. Our governments. Our taxes. Our arms sales. This is our Holocaust. Our Cambodian killing fields. Our Balkans. Our Rwandan genocide. We are doing this and history will never forgive us. Gaza:

Wow—the Lemkin Institute for Genocide Prevention (named after Raphael Lemkin, a Holocaust survivor who coined the term genocide) says plainly: "No more discussions, meetings, reports, sessions, summits…IF YOU HAVE THE POWER, YOU MUST USE IT." "HISTORY WILL DETERMINE THE RECTITUDE OF YOUR ACTIONS."

I think about this conversation with Dr. Yasser Khan every day. He is haunted by every patient he could not save. He came home to Canada only to face smears from some of his fellow doctors in the OR. If there was ever a moment for the medical profession to wake the hell up it is now.

My new column out today: All of us who work on climate have long walked a razor’s edge between hope and despair, and the last few months (or years) have made it near impossible to keep one’s balance. But I would put the current predicament differently. www.nationalobserver.com/2025/07/11/o...

A very emotional read - but a crucial one

Canada’s first LNG export is historic—for all the wrong reasons. As activist @janellelapointe.bsky.social explains, Canada’s LNG push will wreck the planet, sideline Indigenous peoples, and enrich Big Oil. youtu.be/dgEyGEb_8T4

Canada says it's a refuge. It has dangled only false hopes to Palestinians seeking to study here after Israel bombed their universities, or who have applied to be reunited with family. I co-wrote this piece with Deborah Cowen, Kyo Maclear and Madeleine Thien www.theglobeandmail.com/gift/7a8fbe1...

I was born in Montreal because my parents found sanctuary after my father refused to serve in the U.S.'s unjust war in Vietnam. Many of us who live here do so because others fought for their right to similar refuge. Refuge isn't the solution to genocide. But these cases are urgent nonetheless.
