Most of us want to know our neighbours better, but sometimes just don't know how to start. Here are five small ways to open the door to connecting with our neighbours – awkwardness not necessary (but it’s okay!). #CRDConnectionInAction

Loneliness is a quiet crisis. Connection is the cure, and it lives next door. Join in with us for Connection in Action, a Capital Region campaign running now through Loneliness Awareness Week, June 15-21. Learn more and sign up: resilientneighbourhoods.ca/connectioninaction #CRDConnectionInAction

And we can fix it, using existing solutions. We know the solutions. We only need one thing - political will.

Reminder: nothing else will matter if we don't fix this. Nothing. #climateaction #urbanism #cdnpoli #bcpoli #yyj

BC has eliminated its long-running Climate Action Secretariat. At least 10 staff members have been sent to work on pipelines and oil and gas. Meanwhile, this month the City of Vancouver also scrapped its sustainability department. My latest for @thetyee.ca #bcpoli

From 2028, no new homes will be on the gas network - and will instead be on a heat network or get a heat pump - and they must have solar panels on their roofs covering an area equivalent to 40% of the ground floor space www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

‘Better cities are climate action’ 💚🌳💚

Disinformation is rising in cities everywhere and it's affecting residents and democracy at all levels of government. It's mainly in social media but also in some opinion pages, and talk radio. #misinformation #disinformation #bcpoli #cdnpoli #climateaction #urbanism #yyj

Canada's parliament finished a 2-year study about sustainable finance and published 5 recommendations. It is excellent. This study is a feat! Sixty global experts were questioned, highlighting climate risks in Canada and a lag behind many other peer jurisdictions. www.ourcommons.ca/documentview...
