We love our heat pump – saved 30% of our TOTAL energy costs the first year we had it!

The single biggest thing you can do in 2026 to reduce the amount of carbon you produce is to swap your gas furnace for a heatpump. @electrify613.bsky.social can help you make the switch. Make a plan so you’re ready when your furnace kicks the bucket (or before then).

We believe that we have a superpower: our love for our children. As 2025 draws to a close, we wanted to celebrate our #COP30 mothers delegation with this beautiful film, capturing their heart & care - and the spirit of our movement. youtu.be/zwwj4VVz3BY?...

Heavy hitters of Canada's climate movement in here. Give it a listen and get inspired.

A recent UN report found that the unsustainable production of food and fossil fuels amounts to a whopping $5 BILLION of environmental damage PER HOUR. 💸 This is the glaring truth that #BigOil doesn’t want you to know: the cost of doing nothing is much higher than the cost of taking climate action.

Would you look at that, I'm already about half way through the first recommendation on this list! Big big feelings, important, approachable info and even humour. I loved @drkatemarvel.bsky.social on the mansplaining "retired engineers" 🤭

TIL about a memorial ceremony in Iceland in 2019 to mark the end of a glacier, changing the place name from Okjökull to Ok (jökull = glacier). Uncompromising wording on the bronze plaque: "This is to acknowledge that we know what is happening and what needs to be done. Only you know if we did it".

Methane is harming our health today and the planet that future generations will inherit tomorrow. Canadians want to see this addressed, when will our government step up?

Canada is delaying methane reduction. Methane = the least expensive and easiest way to reduce climate emissions at scale.🤯 Our joint statement: https://loom.ly/UIobQGo @envdefensefund.bsky.social @forourkidscanada.bsky.social

To say we are feeling betrayed by the #Carney #Smith #MOU is an understatement. Read our full statement and learn how you can stand up on behalf of all children and the planet. #Climate #CanPoli #Environment #OilAndGas #Children #Parenting #CleanAir www.forourkids.ca/parents_and_...

Well-meaning city dwellers forgo permits and official procedure to rewild urban areas across the country. In downtown LA, artist Doug Rosenberg is trying to push the grassroots movement forward.

Never forget: At breakneck speed we are leaving the stable Holocene climate in which human society developed and thrived. Weather extremes are outside historical experience. Sea-level rise is accelerating. Dangerous tipping points are ahead. Graph: ed-hawkins.github.io/climate-visu...

Our family is getting bigger and bigger. Join our community groups tomorrow to voice your opposition to Bill 60. 🖐️ Hands off our City! 🛣️ Stick to your lane, Doug! ⛑️ Safe streets for people walking, biking, rolling Why should you care about this? Here’s why. 👇 bikeottawa.ca/2025/11/09/w...

🚨 @mayormarksutcliffe.bsky.social - we expect you to stand up to Doug Ford and fight for our Speed Safety Cameras 🧑‍🧑‍🧒‍🧒Our kids and families deserve safe school zones - ASE cameras work! Speed humps and roundabouts won’t fit on arterials 📝Sign our petition today schoolstreetsottawa.ca/get-involved...

Union contracts can support "solar panels and electrification, expanding indoor air quality monitoring, helping educators integrate climate change into their curriculum, and establishing training for students in clean energy jobs, among other steps"

Heartbreaking news from NYC: 2 lives lost in basement flooding. Climate change means more intense storms, and our homes aren't safe. Moms, we MUST demand climate-resilient cities NOW to protect our families. 💔 www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

The world is deeply unserious about dealing with climate change. We need to reduce emissions by 50% in 5 years and we're nowhere near that.

📣 Today we have updated our summary of net zero targets across 40+ of the world's largest emitters. What do we see? 🛑 Ten years after the adoption of the Paris Agreement, the design of most net zero targets remains inadequate. 🔗 climateactiontracker.org/global/cat-n...

YES - the Ford govt rushed ahead and has introduced legislation to ban speed safety cameras. NO - it’s not too late!!! They’ve walked back decisions before! Sign our petition AND write to the premier (link and email address below). Then SHARE! www.ctvnews.ca/ottawa/video...

"...environmental education should embrace new, more radical mantras that tackle the root causes of our ecological crises, such as Regulation, Redistribution, and Reparations." theconversation.com/reduce-reuse...

The voices of young people are clear: Youth unemployment isn’t just a statistic, it’s a crisis shaping their lives & futures. A Youth Climate Corps could put thousands to work while supporting climate & community. Tell Carney: Listen to youth & act for a YCC: www.goodgreenjobsforall.ca/tell-carney

Canada’s mayors, councillors want fast-tracking of projects that fight climate change. montreal.citynews.ca/2025/09/24/o...

Ottawa has a bold vision of a greener future with lots of sustainable transportation options including walking and rolling. Sidewalks are an essential part of this vision. We can't miss out on important opportunities. Thank you to these residents for holding the city to account.
