Yikes CAQ - 250+ doctors plan to leave Quebec. Thanks to Bill C-2. Fines up to $500,000 if doctors speak up against this bill. We need to stop electing people so out of touch with the commons. Re-tweet and like. Because this is gross negligence. #CDNpoli #QCpoli

America's political elite has decided that climate change is no longer that important or worth talking about, but rest assured, it's still happening, it's extremely bad, and yes, it is going to affect you here in America.

NEW from me: CO2 emissions in China have now been flat or falling for 18 months, the first time that energy demand growth at or above historical averages doesn't drive emissions up, thanks to the clean energy boom. 🧵👇

"Fossil demand has been flat for industrial energy since 2014, for buildings since 2018, for road transport since 2019, & may peak for electricity this year. 2/3 of countries have already seen peak fossil demand in end-use sectors, & half the world has seen a peak in fossil fuels for electricity."
