The thing about oilsands companies is that over the past decade they have focused on cutting as many jobs as possible in the name of efficiency while paying as little as possible for the pollution they cause.

The 'Canada Car' better be an EV. Just sayin' #EnergyTransition www.theglobeandmail.com/business/art...

The Minister is concerned about energy sector jobs? He should laser focus on moving the unemployed workers into the renewable energy sector: wind, solar, geothermal. No more subsidies for a doomed fossil fuel industry & its dirty, planet-killing products. #EnergyTransition www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

The Alberta budget deficit is about to get a whole lot bigger. That's what happens when you tie your future to a sunset fossil fuel industry that from now on will be much more bust than boom. #RenewableEnergy #EndFossilFuels www.theglobeandmail.com/world/articl...

Is CAUT @caut.bsky.social exploring the possibility of censure against U of T and UAlberta for punishing faculty for extramural speech and thus violating their academic freedom?

Every time someone says EVs need to be cheaper, they are, just not here, due to lobbying by GM and Ford. Vote with your dollar responsibly if that bugs you.

Electric-carmakers making charging faster — almost as quick as filling a car with petrol. #EV www.ft.com/content/1533...

The interesting question is how quickly green hydrogen can penetrate the heavy equipment / transportation market. That's its most likely niche, not personal transportation. But is battery technology developing so rapidly as to squeeze hydrogen out of even this market? #EnergyTransition

What does it mean to say fossil fuels are affordable? Affordable to whom? How much is the cost of their deadly impact on our environment? The sun won't send you a bill at the end of the month.

This week, the price of natural gas in Western Canada turned negative. That is, BELOW ZERO! It hit a record low of -18cents / BTU. Yet Carney, Smith, Moe, Kinew want to build natural gas pipelines to nowhere. There is a glut of gas and no demand. #EnergyTransition finance.yahoo.com/news/canadia...

The Australian dollar is currently $0.91 Can. BYD now sells an #EV with >300km of range for under $20K Aus. They were selling the #Seagull in Australia for $12K Aus. EVs are now WAY CHEAPER than gas cars with operating costs pennies a day. The only reason Canadians can't get them? 100% tariffs.

Credit where credit is due. Trump nailed it when he said: "We've got a lot of stupid people in this country running things." Thing is, he picked them. Coal is more expensive than wind or solar; and sorry Donald, but climate heating is very real and very dangerous. #RenewableEnergy #ClimateDisaster

The top of this cottonwood caught my eye in the dawn light. Fascinating fall colours.

I like this photo because although it looks like a time lapse image, it's really a flock of four Canada Geese with their wingbeats in series. #Birds 🧪

Will remember this when we go to the polls next. One good thing about living in my area every vote counts for NDP to hold the seat. "When Mr. Kinew started publicly pushing back in the spring of 2024" www.theglobeandmail.com/politics/opi...

😂

The publication of Silent Spring, more than anything else, was the beginning of the modern environmental movement. Carson was attacked when she made the science accessible to a general audience, something that has become fashionable again. #RachelCarson

1/2 📬New Mailbag Episode is fantastic! I teamed up w/ Jonathan Regino to tackle questions, from getting started w/ evidence-based instruction to cutting the fluff & closing gaps. You won't want to miss it! Link below!

Manitoba's future rests upon building out the green economy based on comprehensive electrification and rapid development of renewables. Investing in fossil fuels - like pipelines to Churchill - will condemn Manitoba to being an economic backwater. #MbPoli www.winnipegfreepress.com/breakingnews...

Canada should prioritize low-carbon projects in “nation building” efforts climateinstitute.ca/news/canada-...

This is why we fund science. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

We are now back to the 1950s. Then it was the 'Refrigerator Mother' hypothesis, blaming distant parents for autistic children. That now debunked hypothesis created massive guilt for parents of autistic kids. Now Trump and the charlatan RFKJr are doing it again with their absolute rubbish. #Science 🧪

“We are facing a planetary emergency. The breach of the Ocean Acidification boundary is a stark scientific warning and a moral call to action. Without healthy oceans, peace, prosperity & stability are at risk everywhere. We must act now...to safeguard this life-support system for future generations"

If you want to see the splendour of the Great Barrier Reef, do it now. It won't be recognizable by 2050. By then, global heating and ocean acidification will have destroyed one of Earth's great treasures. #ClimateEmergency www.cbc.ca/news/climate...

My piece in today's @winnipegfreepress.com: why EV mandates are necessary. Ford, GM & Stellantis practice malicious non-compliance focusing on expensive luxury EVs so they can claim there's no demand. But other countries have ALREADY hit 100%! #EVmandates. www.winnipegfreepress.com/opinion/anal...

This is a video I've long wanted to see. Way cool.🐋

Carney’s last-minute withdrawal from the United Nations Secretary-General’s Climate Summit today sends an embarrassing signal that Canada is following Trump in becoming global climate laggards

Catherine McKenna isn’t buying Carney’s carbon capture grand bargain. Neither do I. “Why does anyone think they'll uphold any of their side of any bargain that is made?” t.ly/8xdmt

I wish someone would create a stock market fund that benefits from the payouts of the many Trump-caused lawsuits, including the inevitable one here👇. I bet it would do better than Berkshire-Hathaway. #TylenolLawsuit www.cbc.ca/news/world/t...

Wondering if those scheduled to be raptured got reinstated like Jimmy Kimmel. Seems like a bit of a dud. #WorstRaptureEver

Eight-hour lithium-ion big #battery to be be built in Australia – one of the first in the world – registered with the Australian Energy Market Operator and ready to begin landmark commissioning process. #climate reneweconomy.com.au/australias-f...

Batshit crazy pretty much covers it. www.cnn.com/2025/09/23/p...

Trump has done the world a favour by providing the perfect compass for doing what is right. Whatever he says or does, do the opposite. Just like George. #Science 🧪

As for the lawsuit Tylenol is going to win against Trump, RFKJr and the administration, I think you're going to have add a couple of zeros to this one👇. apnews.com/article/fox-...

Call it what it is: an all-out assault on science. The international science community should boycott America and hold all scientific conferences outside the USA until the war on science ends. And this scientist certainly won't cross the border when posts like this on social media put one at risk.🧪

It's weird how Tylenol caused autism (first diagnosed in 1943) before it was even invented (1955). What a clever drug.

Mark Carney keeps talking about “decarbonized oil.” Today he admitted that’s bullshit. At the Council on Foreign Relations, he started saying BC’s new LNG project was “zero carbon,” before adding a key caveat: “before the Scope 3 obviously.” That’s where the bulk of the emissions come from.

Next up: Trump and RFKJr announce that the CDC will be recommending leeches and bloodletting to treat fever, gout, hearing loss, bunions and antifa. #DarkAges 🧪 www.cnn.com/2025/09/22/h...

Tylenol is about to be rich from the Fed govt after the ABSOLUTELY for certain lawsuit

The obvious question is how is Trump making money from this? Did someone check to see if he purchased Advil stock lately?

And a BYD Seagull would be somewhere in the neighbourhood of $20 to $25K even with a 20% tariff. Affordable EVs anyone? Couple that to a ~70% drop in operating costs, and tariffs are standing in the way of Canadians and a much lower cost of living. #EnergyTransition

Mr. Carney on climate policy.

Seriously? #ClimateEmergency www.reuters.com/sustainabili...

Watching Mr. Carney? Fossil fuels are yesterday's news. Too costly, too slow AND too dirty. #EnergyTransition
