We need to remove 10 billion tonnes of carbon from the atmosphere every year just to limit global heating to 1.7 degrees… and that’s the best case scenario?!

The amazing research article "The 2025 state of the climate report: a planet on the brink" isn't getting enough notice, so I made a little video with the summary of key findings from the paper. If it's too fast at times, just pause and read.

Stephen Colbert tonight is also a must-watch on Kimmel’s firing (and the gutless corporations and people who did it, and why) as part of Trump’s blatant slashing of Freedom Of Speech (and any criticism or dissent) in the United States. Please watch and share.

Hey,
@mark-carney.bsky.social
can you please fix our embarrassingly broken parole system? Our police spend way too much time re-arresting the same people over and over. Enough already.

Hey
@mark-carney.bsky.social
, why exactly are we rolling over on the DST? Why reward orange hitlers hissy fit like that? I think it’s clear most Canadians don’t want to give him an inch. You keep saying we’re not for sale. We negotiate on our terms. So PROVE IT.

I just updated the CO2 graph on NASA's climate dashboard. May was the 4th month in a row to set a new record for the highest CO2 ever measured. This year's peak CO2 will be ~4 ppm higher than last year. We're rapidly going in the wrong direction.

Let’s be clear — the “War on the Car” populist narrative attacking any attempts, however small, to add more CHOICE in how to get around cities, has always been bullshit. But there absolutely should be a “war” on car DEPENDENCY. How can MORE CHOICE, with proven benefits for all, possibly be bad?

This iconic Fabian Todorovic cartoon is still one of the best I’ve seen at illustrating the remarkable amount of space we surrender to cars, leaving little space left for everyone and everything else. The text added later makes the bonus point that many drivers still manage to complain about it.

Trump didn’t “cave” or “back down” on tariffs… he just completed an illegal pump and dump/short insider trading scheme to help his cronies get richer. That the world rolled with it and did what he wanted is lunacy. Cut off and isolate this cancer. Don’t feed it. Diversify. Leave America behind.

WATCH: If you REALLY want to understand just how lazy, moronic & dishonest Trump’s “math” is, that he claims is the basis for his “reciprocal tariffs” on nations all over the world (spoiler: they aren’t reciprocal), please watch this excellent CBC explanation by Andrew Chang. Then please share it.

WATCH: The gloves are off! It’s been an under-reported scandal for quite a while that Pierre Poilievre refuses to apply for security clearance. It was a scandal EVEN BEFORE the most recent efforts to undermine Canada’s democracy, sovereignty and economy from Trump, Musk and the GOP. Share this.

You can’t overstate the historic importance of today’s speech to both American and Canadian citizens by Canada’s Prime Minister. Please watch it and share it wherever you live, but especially if you’re in the United States. You need to know what Trump is doing, and why.

I have been accused of being partisan. Yup. Like Gordie Howe I'm "Mr. Elbows" in fighting to hold governments to account. When a convicted crook in Washington tells me that we have no right to exist as a nation that's when it's time to drop the gloves and teach them a CDN lesson.

The slow GO train speeds through Georgetown are an embarrassment. Whatever the reasons, the fix shouldn’t take this many years. Show me the investment in transit operations please! All day two way can’t happen without a lot more progress on this corridor! Amiright
