Earth Day can feel complicated in a volatile world. But here’s something worth holding onto: clean energy progress is real — and it’s improving lives, strengthening communities, and shaping a more resilient future. 🌍💚

Weeks after the April 1 deadline, we still haven’t seen progress on a $130/tonne industrial carbon credit price in Alberta. This is a crucial piece of climate policy that can unlock tens of billions in industrial investment. 🔗 More from CTV News: buff.ly/A1H4Acg

To meet growing demand, Canada’s grid will need to double or triple its capacity. This is a generational opportunity to build transmission infrastructure. But it can't happen without the leadership of Indigenous nations. Learn how Indigenous-led models can shape the future grid. ⬇️

A new pipeline should be a business decision — not a political one. Taxpayers shouldn’t be asked to shoulder the risks of a $50+ billion pipeline when private investors won’t. Here's why 👇

Methane is the fastest way to reduce emissions from oil and gas production— but only if we measure it properly. New research shows Alberta’s methane emissions are likely far higher than official numbers suggest. Here’s how Alberta can fix its data gaps ⬇️

To understand where carbon removal is going, it helps to understand where it's been. THIS WEEK — on April 23, CanCO2Re is joined by two historians from the University of Calgary to explore how politics and history shape the future of CDR. ⬇️

Alberta already has 4000+ orphan wells it hasn’t cleaned up — and it just got 4000+ more. With inadequate funding from industry, this leaves Albertans to bear the harms associated with unremediated wells near their homes and businesses. #abpoli @thenarwhal.ca with more 👇 buff.ly/C1mTDEr

The City of New Westminster is the FIRST municipality in Canada to pass a maximum heat bylaw. 🌡️🥵 Our homes are our first line of defense against extreme heat. As climate events increase in frequency and severity, it’s more important than ever for Canadians to have access to safe temperatures.

No buyer’s remorse here. Just lower energy bills, comfier homes, and air conditioning for our hotter summers. More from @cleanenergycanada.org on why 91% of Canadians would recommend a heat pump to their neighbour 👇 buff.ly/PFOobKE

Oil & gas companies made an extra $30M/hour during month 1 of the war in Iran, while Canadians paid more at the pump and businesses paid higher energy bills. ⛽❌ “Moments of global crisis continue to translate into bumper profits for oil majors while ordinary people pay the price.” buff.ly/8fwmiNe

More than two thirds of Alberta’s methane emissions come from venting — yet the province’s updated regulations don’t meaningfully address those emissions. Despite a commitment to equivalency, Alberta’s methane rules remain weaker than their federal counterparts. #abpoli buff.ly/WyVmnsx

📢 Canada’s latest greenhouse gas data is out, and it shows Alberta’s lack of progress. While national emissions fell 10% since 2005, Alberta’s rose 4%, driven by ⬆️ oilsands pollution. ⌛ The MOU deal on strong industrial carbon pricing and other climate policies is overdue. #abpoli buff.ly/Ayr9R6M

More EVs on dealership lots means people have more options across models and price ranges. The wider availability also means less worry about gas prices going up and down over time.

Major climate milestone in Canada 🌱 Svante and Meadow Lake Tribal Council have secured a 15‑year agreement with Microsoft for 626,000 tonnes of durable carbon removal. This is the first Indigenous-owned bioenergy with carbon capture and storage deal in Canada. 🙌 🔗:

Electrifying our fleets does more than cut emissions — it reduces the number of Canadians dying prematurely from harmful air pollution. 🚌⚡ Electrifying school buses is the best place to start. They protect children from harmful pollutants and reduce asthma-related absences.

Canadians are saving hundreds of dollars every month by electrifying the homes they live in and the cars they drive. But clean energy tech offers more than cost savings: they make our homes more comfortable and the air we breathe in safer. Explore the full benefits of clean tech 👇 buff.ly/3ivU1j3

The number of orphan wells in Alberta will almost double this year. The money the province makes industry set aside to clean them up will rise by only 7 per cent. That’s a problem. #abpoli buff.ly/A4d2yxf

Wind and solar are the clear winners of Ontario’s latest energy procurement results. ☀️💨 #Solar and #wind is now cheaper than any other form of new electricity generation. This is the perfect time for ON to step back into the renewables market. #ONpoli 👉 buff.ly/kr70JCC
