Man I can't stop thinking about all the poor creatures burning and suffocating to death today. They deserve so much better. Humans are so evil, man.

"Assembly of First Nations chiefs on Wednesday unanimously resolved to oppose the Carney government's sweeping proposed reforms aimed at streamlining major project approvals, if those reforms weaken environmental protections or sidestep Indigenous rights." #ProtectNature www.cbc.ca/news/indigen...

The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia that is led by a man who killed and dismembered a journalist in his palace? That one?

We want bees to survive. There was a Snoopy comic going around with similar text that was ironically AI generated so we took inspiration from it and used original illustrations from A.A. Milne's 1926 book Winnie-the-Pooh that are in the public domain.

My Canada Day Mark Carney terrible policies BINGO card is completely full. What are we going to do about it? Let’s go square by square together through the whole card to look at evidence together. I wouldn't call this the very worst government we've ever had without evidence to back me up. 🇨🇦🧵 1/

Jason Kenney hopefully amplifying reports that Carney might be open to privatizing our healthcare. If this ends up having even a lick of truth — which there is no reason to believe right now — it would be horrifying for our country. Don’t even think about it, Carney. Please.

I'm thrilled and grateful to have my photography in Issue 7 of @underbellypress.bsky.social. Congratulations to the other contributors!

Issue 7 will be released on the 17th of July These themed issues have been such a rewarding experience to curate. This issue also marks two years of Underbelly Press. I feel very fortunate for all the connections the magazine has brought. Thank you for being here.

I'm delighted to announce the list of fantastic contributors for Issue 7: Deception & Dirty Realism! A massive thank you to everyone who submitted and supported this issue and all the rest. Happy two years of Underbelly Press🖤 The release date will be revealed early next week!

Pragmatically killing the Southern Resident Killer Whale population so we can export more oil and gas in a decade to an economy that no longer wants it because everyone else is transitioning to renewables 🤗🤗🤗

You buried the lede, CBC. 🧐 🚨 "...climate change is likely playing the largest role in our summer weather." Lots and lots of jibber jabber about El Niño, and oh well, that's Canada, eh, before you finally write about the elephant in the room. Do better! #CBC www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Happy Canada Day! 🇨🇦 Canada is gorgeous forests, pristine lakes, and precious wildlife. We are Nature. Canada is Nature. Protection for all. 💚 #CompositeImage #CanadianFlag #CanadaDay #NaturePhotography #CompositePhotography

Dear @e.electionscanada.ca, Is it too late to change my vote in the 2025 federal election? 😡 #ConCarney #ClimateCrisis #WhenRedIsBlue @mark-carney.bsky.social

It's a downy woodpecker. Did It fly into a window? It may need help from a wildlife rehabber. Wild birds do not usually let you hold them if they're OK.

fyi, that AltNOAA story about a whale escape that's making the rounds is completely made up/AI generated and the OP is aware and thinks spreading fake stories is fine generally speaking the "altgov" accounts are firehoses of misinfo that are not worth your precious attention

This image is a lie. This image is disinformation. This image is AI slop. This post is more about "please, like me", than the immorality behind captive beings. There are many heartwarming TRUE Nature stories to share. Don't be manipulated by attention-seeking accounts like @altnoaa.bsky.social.

The rise of larger vehicles like SUVs and pickup trucks, with their taller hoods and larger blind zones, has contributed to a 75% increase in pedestrian and cyclist deaths since 2009. Until we design better streets and ban these vehicles, people outside these vehicles will keep dying.

After weeks in court, The Narwhal is in the home stretch of our press freedom trial against the RCMP — final arguments are wrapping up.

 We’re standing firm in our conviction that journalists must be given access to cover the actions of powerful government institutions like the police.

The critically endangered hooded Grebe is a rare water bird found exclusively in the remote windswept regions of Patagonia Argentina. Discovered in 1974 it is famous for its intricate synchronized aquatic courtship dance displayed here absolutely amazing.

Yesterday my 19 year old nephew/godson was killed in a car accident. It is tragic and heartbreaking. Family gathering today and I’m definitely struggling to go. Hug your children. Teach them well. Hope they make good decisions. Tell them you love them.

Why did you and Smith let O'Leary off with NO environmental assessments for the huge $70 billion data center? This is the petition to try and stop it. No consults with the Sturgeon Cree or residents in area either. WHY Mr Prime Minister? #WonderValley #SynapseOlds www.ourcommons.ca/petitions/en...

AI slop. I'm blocking anyone who posts AI crap, especially the pathetic attention-seeking people like Jas who use babies to get some likes. No tearing up, just pissed off. #AIslop

A new pipeline means more oil spills, more pollution, and more climate disasters threatening the clean water, nature, and communities we love. And who benefits? Wealthy, largely U.S.-owned oil companies. PM Mark Carney invest in our communities, not risky pipelines.

Ottawa is gutting key laws that protect the ocean in the name of the "public interest." This World Ocean Day, add your voice: Tell the feds that expedited approvals of projects like pipelines and ports are not in the public interest — healthy waters and communities are. https://ow.ly/Kgat50Z8Bku

Some belated good news for World Environment Day 🌊 The establishment of Mia-yaltwa Ha’lidzogm hoon uplifts the generational work of the Nations who have been stewarding the marine environment of the Central Coast for millennia.

This warms my cold, dead heart... Hurricanes fans chant ‘no means no’ aimed at VGK Carter Hart | Raleigh News & Observer share.google/l7xXa6vrbcUc...

"'He yells,' said one MP (...). 'He punches down at caucus all the time.'" This is pretty unsurprising based on various reports on some of Carney's behind-the-scenes behaviour since day one, but it's still really off-putting to read. Great reporting from @althiaraj.bsky.social. She's killing it.

WATCH: Green Party Leader Elizabeth May speaks to media about shocking legislation being pushed through Parliament that attacks environmental protections. “We remain the country within the G7 with the worst climate record.”
