Here comes the sun ☀️ A powerful Guardian podcast “The clean energy revolution — a reason to be hopeful” puts forward how the solar/renewables tipping point is redefining power, politics & freedom. A must-listen for anyone who believes in change. 🎧👇 shorturl.at/d4NGU

Wind is proving itself a powerful lever not just for #renewable energy — but for reducing costs in the market. A must-read for those tracking energy & economics: shorturl.at/o960k #energyeconomics #climatenews

Let's be clear tho: Carney abandoned climate change policy as a cynical means to get elected, not because there are other crises.

Yeah, we've seen this before. Disappointing @mark-carney.bsky.social

Shameful. This president is a mass murderer.

“The connection between conserving species and respecting Indigenous knowledge is inseparable,” says Shane Moffatt @OntarioNature. “Protecting polar bears also means respecting the people and traditions tied to the same landscape.” More about Bill 5 weakening protections for polar bears here:

The scare quotes here are doing what? Is hydroplaning something we aren't sure is real? Is it a trademark name? Just publish the OPP press release entirely.

Notice her non-answer. This is explosive. Should be explosive. The US AG who said she had the Epstein files on her desk cannot say whether or not the FBI has pix of Trump with half-naked women, which one witness who knew Epstein has said he has seen.

I feel Doug Ford may have misread the room on this one

You show me a bad idea for #ClimateChange in Canada and I'll show you full bipartisan support for it across the political spectrum. That's what's broken. Them. #cdnpoli #ClimateChange

Canadian policy needs to reflect that certainty in Canada-US relations is literally unattainable. Unfortunately, the pursuit of this certainty remains the lynchpin of Carney’s policy, including with continued security and military cooperation with the US as if it remains a trusted ally.

Case in point: QC Premier Legault‘s ongoing, utterly delusional calls for “certainty” in the Canada-US trade relationship. Certainty is impossible. An agreement can’t deliver it. The problem’s not just Trump, but that the US elected an authoritarian party that no longer respects the rule of law.

Speeds up to 162 km/h and this person still works for the Ford government? "New data obtained by Global News using freedom of information laws reveal that at least one cabinet-assigned vehicle was recorded driving more than 50 km/h over the speed limit 12 times in the past three years." #OnPoli

Gueph police is doing a bike blitz in October like as if it was cyclists who triple child pedestrian fatalities ever Halloween night. 🙄

Bad news for the biosphere but it'll sure help solve Liberals' "stranded assets" problem.

Time for Mark Carney to invite BYD to take over a factory that some US automaker will surely vacate in the coming year in exchange for access to the Canadian market.

Danielle Smith’s “pipeline do-over” has no investors, no plan, just public money propping up a dying industry, experts warn. Alberta’s new oil pipeline could cost billions and end up stranded as the world moves past fossil fuels. More: www.theenergymix.com/albertas-new...

Trump has never sounded guiltier than this and that's a high bar

A coalition of solar energy companies, labor unions, nonprofit groups and homeowners sued the EPA on Monday over its termination of $7 billion in grants intended to help low- and moderate-income families install solar panels on their homes.

PM Mark Carney is trying to create Trump-style borders and surveillance with his Strong Borders Act. Demand he respect our rights and treat people with care and dignity. Withdraw Bill C-2! #stopbillC2 act.gp/3GMk2wj #cdnpoli

I think she'll find that Canada was built just fine without a pipeline. A railroad on the other hand...

I keep thinking about this bit from the Auditor General's report on Ontario's GHG emissions: auditor.on.ca/en/content/s...

"I just wish they could feel a tiny modicum of shame for censoring themselves at the behest of people who oppose everything these supposed truth-tellers have claimed to believe in." @sonnybunch.bsky.social on the comedians in Riyadh: www.thebulwark.com/p/saudi-arab...

And in terms of where to find hope, we find it in action. Pinned to the top of my feed are the 6 most effective things an individual can do to catalyze climate action: bsky.app/profile/kath...

Yale researchers didn't stop there. They also identified what people most need to know to catalyze action and support climate policy; and it's not about global temps, ice sheets, or ocean currents. What people most need to know about climate change is that (1) others care, and (2) there is hope.

Two of the most common climate misconceptions I see, even among knowledgeable folks, are that (1) most people aren't worried about climate change, and (2) if they were, they'd act. Not true! Data show (1) most people are worried, but (2) they won’t act if they don’t know what to do-and most don’t.

Definition of conservative used to be "cares about money". Now they only care about *certain* people's money

It costs money to know that rent in Hamilton is now almost double the minimum wage. If you have a few dollars to spare, consider donating to the @policyalternatives.ca, whose researchers help us understand the crushing weight of capitalist exploitation! wl.donorperfect.net/weblink/WebL...

Dense urban areas carry the suburbs, financially, climate… How odd that there’s a core of conservative theorist-pundits in Canada who have a suburbizatiom ideology. It isn’t cheaper or more efficient. It’s subsidy & burden shifting.

This story is somehow not on either CNN's or the NYTimes' main page...

Stephen Miller said last year this was the plan. They said it out loud. Some of us highlighted his remarks at the time and warned how dangerous they were. Most of the media missed them and/or moved on from them. It’s happening:

To be fair, who among us hasn't been caught doing 70 in a 40 when we were running a little late for a ribbon cutting at a new private healthcare clinic or to pick up a bag of donations from real estate developers?
