Ever feel like you're the only one who cares that the planet is collapsing around us? 🤯 It's barely in the news. Friends & family don't bring it up. But recent polling shows: you're not alone! 🤝🏼 Let's normalize talking about it. Silence begets silence. Full poll: bit.ly/4uld0Bi

Remember the deadly #heatwave that hit BC in June 2021, almost five years ago? Because of fossil fuel loving politicians, our planet has become even hotter and more dangerous. Your friends and family care, talk to them. www.theguardian.com/environment/... #yyj #bcpoli #cdnpoli #LaterIsTooLate

I was glad to join CBC radio's On The Coast today to talk about the German purchase agreement for Ksi Lisims LNG (quick take: there is less here than the government is making out), as well as Carney's climate record and the departure of Steven Guilbeault. Have a listen: www.cbc.ca/listen/live-...

So, the Globe is clarifying that the German SEFE purchase agreement to be announced tomorrow will be for only one million tonnes of LNG a year, meaning half as much as Shell and Total are committed to buying from the proposed Ksi Lisims LNG facility...🧵 www.theglobeandmail.com/business/art...

‘This year is set to be one of the hottest on record, but it’s still likely to be one of the coolest years we will experience during our lifetimes.’

🚨RIGHT NOW, the Canada Infrastructure Bank is considering funding Ksi Lisims LNG with public money. Join us on May 28 to call and message board members directly and tell them: NO public handouts for LNG. 📅 May 28 ⏰ 9 AM PDT / 12 PM EDT 💻 Register on Zoom us06web.zoom.us/meeting/regi...

It seems like almost everyone is moving away from fossil fuels... with Canada being an embarrassing exception. www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

BC Parks are being battered by extreme weather, caused by burning fossil fuels like fracked gas (LNG). So why is BC Premier David Eby subsidizing the extraction of more gas and making the #climatecrisis worse? www.timescolonist.com/local-news/t... #bcpoli #bcwildfire #VancouverIsland

A first for me today. Glad to have this piece in The Guardian. Figured it was time more of our international friends heard some hard truths about how things are going here in 🇨🇦: www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

B.C. is moving backwards fast on climate, environment & reconciliation. We’re not staying quiet while that happens! But our MLAs keep telling us they’re not hearing from people about climate concerns anymore... help us prove them wrong!💪🏼 Send a letter at the link below👇🏼

Vancouver friends! Reminder - this vote comes to city council tomorrow (Wednesday), so act today if you want to make your views known. 👇

‼️ Vancouver's gas ban is once more under attack. This is BAD NEWS. If the motion passes, it would wreak havoc on requirements for new & existing buildings. Sign up to speak to Motion 8 at Council May 20, 9:30am (in person or via phone) and say THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE. vancouver.ca/your-governm...

Growing calls for a health impact review on LNG and fracking now include four councils whose communities may be at risk. “It makes sense to support each other in trying to get answers that I think are pretty important for everyone” — Coun. Chris Pettingill My story for @thetyee.ca #bcpoli

Lemon alert! LNG Canada again facing operational issues. Here's the litany this time: 1. Main flare tip cracked. Twice. in March. 2. Backup flare tip flared 16 million cubic metres of gas in one month 3. Acid gas incinerator went offline 4... 🧵 Thread www.ctvnews.ca/vancouver/ar...

‘Worse Than Harper’: Regulatory Rollback Would Stop Canada from Assessing Project Impacts, Critics Warn www.theenergymix.com/worse-than-h...

No campfires 😢 No Trans Canada Trail 😢 Devastating wildfires 😢 #Fossilfuels ruin everything 🤮. The good thing is that 🌞 and wind energy are now *much less expensive* than fossil fuels like fracked gas (LNG). Choices. #bcpoli #bcwildfire #EndClimateSilence @thenarwhal.ca

A campfire ban just went into effect for BC's South Coast. No campfires, and it's only May?! So why is BC approving more fossil fuel projects, the very cause of the problem? Tell your MLA: we don’t want more fossil fuels. We want clean energy & a liveable future! 👇 myseatosky.org/take-action/...

The political impact of extreme weather depends a lot on how we talk about that weather. If journalists, elected officials, and other trusted messengers explicitly link extreme weather to climate change, then "climate change worry" and "support for government action" rises. #EndClimateSilence

🚨🔥Campfire ban a FULL MONTH EARLIER than any ever recorded before on South Coast!! Previous record was June 8, 2023. This is the #climatecrisis, caused primarily by burning fossil fuels like fracked gas (LNG). [Key info buried in last paragraph] #bcwildfire #EndClimateSilence #bcpoli

Don’t buy Big Oil’s lies 💸 The only way Canadians will benefit from the oil price shock is if we tax the fossil fuel industry’s excess profits and use those billions to help everyday people. #cdnpoli #canada #gasprices

Transport Action supports the call for a BC-wide intercity bus network, supported by frequent rail service on key corridors including Vancouver Island. cheknews.ca/new-public-t...

"Public transit needs to be viewed for what it is: a tool that can save someone up to $15,000 per year. There is no other cost saving tool at any government’s disposal as powerful as #publictransit." @michaelhall.bsky.social @movementyvr.bsky.social #bcpoli #bcndp

April 22 Earth Day MLA Mable Elmore spoke in the Legislature about meeting Donelda Rose, Ben Ernst (of Earnest Ice Cream) and Jeannie Morton. She mentioned "They brought with them a report by the BC Climate Emergency Campaign" and spoke of the need for climate action. tinyurl.com/yc3nh6s9

Great action against fracking LNG in #VictoriaBC today! #yyj #bcpoli #cdnpoli

Extracting more gas via fracking (LNG) in a climate emergency, and going bankrupt doing it, is NOT in Our National Interest. Join us on Wed April 15, 11:45-1:15 at 1230 Government St. www.facebook.com/events/12702... #yyj #cdnpoli #bcpoli @stand.earth @wildernews.bsky.social @dogwoodbc.bsky.social

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

My latest column is out. I did some digging into what's holding up a final investment decision for Ksi Lisims LNG - potentially Canada's next major 'carbon bomb.' Turns out the 🇺🇸 owners of the proposed project are hoping for public investment from 🇨🇦 govt. www.nationalobserver.com/2026/03/25/o...

Wow! Big move out of UK today. This is how we should be responding to oil price shocks 👏👏 Britain responds to Iran war energy shock by requiring solar panels and heat pumps in all new homes. www.cnbc.com/2026/03/24/i...

"We all know the oil and gas is is part of a way of living. . . But we also need to be concerned about the health impacts. . . I'm just advocating that we establish the highest standards of preventative health regimes." - Dawson Creek City Councillor www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

The planet is overheating. Why is the news looking away?

While British Columbians wave goodbye to the possibility of meeting our climate targets as the BC gov goes all in on LNG, cities around the world are slashing air pollution. BC politicians should take note... www.theguardian.com/environment/...

When it comes to press releases, this in the GOAT conversation:

Help us hold FortisBC accountable for dumping pollution loaded with heavy metals into Átl’ḵa7tsem / Howe Sound. It only takes a minute to send a letter >> We cannot allow FortisBC to put Átl’ḵa7tsem / Howe Sound’s precious ecosystems and biodiversity at risk.

Is the LNG industry a rigged game?

From Re.Climate: 70% of public would feel pride if 🇨🇦 were to become a *renewable* energy superpower vs only 30% who feel that way about being an oil & gas superpower. From poll with Abacus: Climate change remains a top concern, & Canadians expect action from leaders. reclimate.ca/canadians-wa...
