This wonderful country of ours is worth fighting for. And the best is yet to come — if we put in the work required. #cdnpoli www.nationalobserver.com/2026/06/30/o...

By generating #renewableelectricity and fresh water from the same installation,these projects address #clean-energy and water scarcity Although still emerging, integrated solar-desalination systems could become especially valuable for islands, coastal communities, drought-prone regions #ActOnClimate

Marco Rubio is against birthright citizenship. But Marco Rubio *is* a birthright citizen. Ted Cruz is against birthright citizenship. But Ted Cruz was born in Canada. He only got US citizenship by a birthright citizenship law because of his US mother. They are both shameless hypocrites.

Heinrich Himmler: "If we lose the war, the Allies will turn every committee of the occupation into an investigative body. They will go after the Reich leadership, the cabinet, the donors, and friends."

What if parking tickets could help feed people? Kingston is using parking fine revenue to grow fresh produce for local food banks, with 1,700 kg already harvested. Could your community do something similar? This is exactly why local CBC reporting matters-- it helps good ideas spread.

One of the most successful pedestrian streets in the world, the Strøget in Copenhagen, was filled with cars until a 2 year pedestrianization pilot project in 1962. The opposition argued “no cars means no business,” but the street has been a massive retail success, the city’s busiest shopping street.

🔥 A large 220/35 kV Maryanovka substation burning in the Krasnohvardiyskyi District of Crimea, - Crimean Wind There has been no power in the village (and possibly in other villages in the district) since approximately 4:00.

In Spain today: installation of solar panels above major irrigation channels. Channels of more than 100 kms transport water from dams to farmland. - Reduces evaporation -Provides large agricultural areas with power & supports irrigation -Decreases use of water in food production, doubling the crop.

Germany has successfully engineered a revolutionary transparent solar glass that generates clean electricity while remaining completely see-through from both sides, fundamentally transforming how buildings produce energy. #solarpower #ActOnClimate

“They cut speed limits, changed street design, removed space for cars… Now it appears that work is paying off. #Oslo & #Helsinki are reaping the rewards of committed action on making their roads safer, reducing pedestrian fatalities to zero last year.” #VisionZero #SpeedKills

You notice that the criminal-in-charge who sues everyone for everything is drop dead quiet about this. Says a lot.

Ukrainian drones struck the oil depot in Poltavskaya, Krasnodar region, in Russia. At least three silos are on fire.

Belarus's opposition leader in exile Sviatlana Tsikhanouskaya, like politicians in all of the countries neighboring fascist Russia, knows how to deal with the Kremlin. Western leaders in countries further to the west should listen to their colleagues in the east of the West.

Albania is bringing that real energy ✊

“The world is not going to be saved by big electric SUVs,” says Renault’s chief design officer…”The world is going to be saved by small electric cars. We need them to become as popular as other cars.” More small electric cars, but also fewer cars overall, driven much less thanks to more choices.

She was whipped by men whose religion, which was created by other men, doesn't think men have the self-control not to be tempted to assault her if they simply see her hair. Seems that the wrong people are being whipped.

Anyone who says "Data centres create jobs" has never been in an actual data centre. I've been in ones where the only people working was the security guard. They're computers, not children, they generally don't need baby sitting.

‼️ Russia: “"Otherwise, we'll do it." Zelensky gave Lukashenko a week to shut down equipment in Belarus that helps Russia strike Ukraine.” 👀 ru.themoscowtimes.com/2026/06/19/i...

Perfection, as always.

European G7 countries and the US will produce long-range missiles under licence in Ukraine. Not only air defence systems, but deep-strike capabilities. In practical terms, this means: - Ukraine becomes less dependent on slow political decisions for every new delivery.

France is leading the way by enacting a total ban on harmful chemical treatments to protect our essential pollinators. Bees are the backbone of global agriculture and food security. Let us hope that more countries follow this incredible example.

⚡️ Update: Drone strike knocks Moscow oil refinery completely out of action, Reuters reports. The June 16 Ukrainian drone strike on the Moscow Oil Refinery has forced a total halt in its operations, Reuters reported, citing Russian industry sources.

LISTEN: Here’s my interview on the big need for a new and smarter conversation about street transformations into people-places here in Vancouver, fuelled by the already clear success of the Granville Street #WorldCup transformation. Thanks @jasjohal.bsky.social. podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/t...

"The mere existence of trillionaires is a major political and economic problem, probably the defining issue of our time," writes @gabrielzucman.bsky.social. "When the power of wealth is wielded by sociopaths, the consequences are a matter of life and death."

This is a great discussion between me and Shaun Pinner @ShaunPinnerUA on drone warfare, Russia-Ukraine, humanity, family and love. I highly recommend checking that out! youtu.be/fRGk95S7Mpo...

Damn Colbert is a treasure. He very knowingly and intentionally played Linus and Lucy on the air, and the copyright holder joyfully got a fine out of CBS for it and then donated it to World Central kitchen. www.rollingstone.com/tv-movies/tv...

A basic income program in central Iowa gave 110 people $500/mo. It caused improvements in savings, stress, and agency. It also found significant changes in scores relating to hope — the ability to create goals and feel capable of working toward them, and also increases in mattering and self-reliance

Monsanto wanted its growth hormone in every glass of Canadian milk. One government scientist stood in the way and his own bosses spent 14 years trying to destroy him for it. His name was Dr. Shiv Chopra. Canadians owe him a lot. Pt 1

💥🤩🔥 Moment of strike in Yaroslavl region!

Right to repair means more than the ability to do your own oil changes. The automakers are working to drive every independent mechanic out of business, making you wholly dependent on dealers...who are likewise becoming a monopoly. www.thedrive.com/news/ford-ce...

The Dutch mobility system isn't just built around cycling. It's built around bike-train intermodality: cycling solves the train's convenience problem and the train solves cycling's range problem. Together, they offer an attractive alternative to driving on a mass scale. WATCH: youtu.be/jq93DgLvmFc

Imagine you had so much food in your house that, no matter have hard they tried, your family couldn't possibly eat it. Then, imagine what would happen if you continued to buy and hoard more food, filling cupboard after cupboard. You'd be considered mentally ill Why is this never applied to money?

What Ivanka & Jared are doing is worse than I thought they are destroying natural wetlands of Albania. The corruption is unpalatable. Ariel Brunner is fighting them tooth & nail and boy oh boy is he angry. As he should be. Ariel Brunner is Europe & Central Asia Director of BirdLife International.

🔥 The defense forces hit two petrochemical plants in Russia at once. ❗️Nizhnekamskneftekhim in Tatarstan and Togliattikauchuk in the Samara region. 👀 Russian air defense hit a residential building in Nizhnekamsk. 💥 In Simferopol, a fire was recorded in the area of ​​CHP.

We cut down the trees and then wonder why the Earth is getting hotter. The shade we destroyed yesterday is the heat we are suffering from now. A tree is not just wood—it is oxygen, rain, cool air, shelter, and life. Plant trees. Protect forests.

Yay, Albania! Keep up the good fight. 🇦🇱

Brick by brick, we are collapsing the foundations of Russia's war economy. Today, we are presenting our proposals for a 21st sanctions package against Russia. Thread ↓
