Spoke to the Guardian about the idea of quitting LLMs for climate: -“I see this all as very much part of the tactic of trying to embed these systems into society and instil dependency in a fashion similar to the growth of single-use plastics in the 1970s.” www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

Cycling side-by-side isn’t bad behaviour—it’s human behaviour. It’s how parents talk to their kids. How friends catch up. How communities form. If bicycle infrastructure is too narrow for people to ride and talk together, the problem isn’t the people. It’s the infrastructure. Nørrebro, Copenhagen.

HOLY SHIT. A dark money group, hidden behind a bunch of shell companies, is paying influencers thousands of dollars PER POST to attack @katmabu.bsky.social on social media a month before her election. Thank you to the people who declined the money and went forward with this. So who's behind this?

“…poor air quality caused by pollution and wildfire smoke, occupational exposures like those for firefighters and construction workers” Air pollution, wildfires, toxic exposures for workers - they share a common source: burning oil and gas, and turning them into toxic petrochemicals / products.

Wow, great @nytimes.com piece on the toxic tar sands tailings, their harms to downstream Nations, and Indigenous pushback against this dirty industry to protect their peoples and territories: www.nytimes.com/2026/03/10/h...

VANCOUVER – The family the girl critically injured in the mass shooting in Tumbler Ridge, B.C., has launched a civil court lawsuit against artificial intelligence firm OpenAI.

"The imminent depletion of water supplies in Corpus Christi threatens to cut off the flow of jet fuel to Texas airports and other oil exports from one of the nation’s largest petroleum ports, triggering potential shockwaves through energy markets in Texas and beyond."

This is a push poll, by the notorious Conservative operative Nick Kouvalis, that the government has leaked to the Star www.thestar.com/politics/pro...

if we’re fomenting rage against First Nations because people are being given two years notice to vacate their expiring leaseholds on reserve land then we’ve kind of lost the plot

It's hard to internalize the fact that the administration really does believe the Iraq war was "woke" and that they would be able to easily defeat a substantially more powerful nation simply by being based chads

holy shit

Salt water laced with cancer-causing chemicals, a byproduct of oil and gas drilling, keeps shooting out of the ground in Oklahoma. Experts say it means even more wastewater is spreading underground, poisoning the state’s water supply. (Published Oct. 2025 with @readfrontier.bsky.social)

Anderson Cooper: “So it's more expensive to have a chronically homeless person living on the streets than it is to actually subsidize an apartment for them?” Answer: “Yes, we’re paying more as taxpayers to walk past that person on the street and do nothing.” #HousingFirst #UrbanTruth

Fossil fuel companies withdrew as much water as 110,000 households last year, equivalent to the population of Nanaimo. #BigTech isn’t far behind, planning to build data centres in B.C. that would “drink” 20 million litres of water PER DAY.

Look, this isn’t complicated: mercury, arsenic, lead and nickel are poisonous, whether you voted for this president or not. But don’t worry, EPA admin Zeldin estimates that allowing power plants to release more toxins will save the utility industry ~$78 million/year.

I have only just recently started digging into data centres and water, and the way companies are hiding vital information is beyond belief. It is so, so dodgy. The entire project to widely popularise the idea these concerns are "fake" makes so much sense in this context

Sweet Jesus this is awful

Last Parliament, I worked to pass strong anti-greenwashing rules to stop corporations from making false environmental claims. Last week, the Liberals and Conservatives joined forces to gut them. Rather than defending the public, they’re facilitating corporate deception.

Big Oil is shamelessly arguing that they should be allowed to dump carcinogenic plastic pollution into the Gulf of Mexico.

Anthropic is a weird cult who think their software has feelings and thoughts and now thanks to their recent marketing campaign (and the credulous participation of a huge number of progressives), a large number of people around you have joined the cult and are drinking from the fountain

Another war. Another fossil shock. As violence escalates in the Middle East, civilians face devastating consequences. But the energy fallout is already hitting Europe. Gas prices up 50% in hours. This is what fossil fuel dependence looks like. 🧵

The $ billions needed to clean up tar sands tailings is being massively undercapitalized by these companies, in the hope that they can flee the scene and leave the public holding the bag. As oil prices spike, investors and governments should push this ‘war windfall’ towards their cleanup funds.

I am pro Iranian people. I stand with them against their own government’s repression AND against the imperial violence in the form of bombs dropped from the sky from Israel & the US who have already killed hundreds. I support neither imperialism or dictatorship. Sahar Delijani said it best:

Carney's statement on the US-Israeli attack on Iran frames the RETALIATION as the threat to regional peace, not the initial strikes that killed 200+ people, including little girls at a school. He "reaffirms Israel's right to defend itself" in the context of an offensive operation.

1/ The images coming out of Iran are already unbearable. Reports of an elementary school struck by missiles, killing dozens of people, with scores more killed around the country. Fear and chaos in the streets as families run through smoke and search for safety.

We killed 85 schoolgirls. We are not the good guys.

Civilians should never pay the price of military action, their protection is essential. All parties to the conflict should respect international humanitarian law and prioritize the protection of civilians. These truths are universal. #Iran

This scandal presents Carney and Solomon the perfect opportunity to pivot away from the AI boosterism that has defined this Liberal government to recalibrate their AI policy and start taking on the harms that have come of generative AI (and other digital tech). I do not expect them to take it.

It has been weirdly forgotten but: fossil fuel use causes harm that we all pay for, worsening the costs of our day to day lives while also killing and hurting us. www.cleanenergywire.org/news/germany...
