Ford operates with the same mentality as Trump by imposing his radical agenda to fast-track risky projects at the expense of public & Indigenous consultation & strong environmental protections that will place Ontario rivers, biodiversity & entire communities at risk. news.ontario.ca/en/release/1...

Under consideration for a second round of projects is carbon capture, utilization and storage proposal from Pathways Alliance, a consortium of oilsands companies. The industry claims the project will allow the continued expansion of so-called decarbonized.... theconversation.com/mark-carneys...

Scientists soon knew they were witnessing something both unexpected and profound: seeds and plant scraps, trapped underground for more than a century, had roared back to life. www.theguardian.com/world/2025/o...

"The Klamath is showing us the way. The speed and scale of the river’s recovery has exceeded our expectations and even the most optimistic scientific modeling, proving that when the barriers fall, nature has an incredible power to heal itself". caltrout.org/news/1-year-...

“Right now, we’re experiencing very, very low river flows. It’s kind of unprecedented. The last few weeks, if it keeps trending the way it’s trending, we’ll probably be at the lowest flow recorded since 1968. Of course, it’s all caused by the dry weather. www.ctvnews.ca/atlantic/new...

These boundaries are defined as ecological thresholds that keep life on Earth within a “safe operating space” or safe boundaries. In short, planetary boundaries are processes vital to the Earth system. www.downtoearth.org.in/climate-chan...

Carney's 2021 book "Values": “The carbon budget to limit temperature rises to below catastrophic levels is rapidly being exhausted. If we had started in 2000, we could have hit the 1.5 C objective by halving emissions every 30 years...If we wait another eight years.." www.thestar.com/opinion/cont...

Brook trout, a cold-water species highly sensitive to temperature fluctuations, serve as an important indicator of ecosystem health. "They thrive in low temperatures. While they start to suffer even around 19, 20 degrees," said Milli. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

The West Credit River has one of the few remaining self-sustaining populations of this native Brook Trout species in southern Ontario. Releasing warm sewage effluent into their coldwater habitat could have adverse effects on this temperature-sensitive Brook Trout population. LEARN MORE AT: cwcr.ca

Brilliant!! Kennebec River Restoration Trust—is currently being formed to take ownership of the dams, oversee operations of the hydroelectric facilities, and manage a multi-year restoration and redevelopment process in close collaboration with local communities. www.nature.org/en-us/about-...

Robichaud, a director of the Ontario Rivers Alliance, sits on an environmental committee that works directly with the Crawford mine and has sought answers for how that effluent will impact the river and the species within it like the sturgeon, which he sees less of now. thenarwhal.ca/critical-min...

It's a really bad decision, at a really bad moment. Canada is locked in a trade war with the US, and the protection, monitoring and management of water is critical for health, safety, economic development and sovereignty. www.nationalobserver.com/2025/09/12/n...

So why isn't climate change mitigation and environmental sustainability included as a priority of this government? www.canada.ca/en/environme...

There is "no doubt" that climate change is the biggest threat to human health this century, and that it will mean more anxiety, respiratory illnesses, heart disease and deadly heat strokes. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

A team led by researchers at McGill University in Montreal and Université Laval analyzed sediment cores taken from 80 lakes across the country and found that algae has been increasing in the majority of them since the mid-1800s. www.cbc.ca/news/science...

Carney is missing in action on climate targets, but is fully committed to advancing the interests of the oil and gas industry and removing environmental red tape. Our democracy is under threat! www.cbc.ca/news/politic...

Just weeks after nine Ontario First Nations launched their own legal challenge to Bill C-5 and Bill 5, Indigenous communities say they represent a “clear and present danger” to the First Nations’ self-determination rights to ways of life on their territories. www.theglobeandmail.com/canada/artic...

Climate models predict increased hydropower instability across the Prairies, with more frequent and longer droughts mixed with periods of flooding. That’s coupled with a growing population and ever-increasing demand for water, energy and electricity. thenarwhal.ca/prairies-dro...

“I would hope that this is like a big megaphone for, you know, getting people interested in climate change, trying to put pressure on government to make sure that strong policies and laws are in place to bend the curve on emissions” rdnewsnow.com/2025/08/07/c...

Ontario didn’t consult Indigenous communities before passing Bill 5, which allows for “special economic zones” where “designated projects” can be fast-tracked. A duty to consult is required under Section 35 of the Constitution Act, 1982. thenarwhal.ca/ontario-bill...

Bypassing laws to provide economic certainty while shutting out communities & Indigenous people from decision-making processes that affect the lands and waters around them results in lawsuits, blockades and protests, lengthens processes and decreases certainty. www.pelhamtoday.ca/local-news/t...

“Today, the tables have turned. The world’s highest court provided us with a powerful new tool to protect people from the devastating impacts of the climate crisis — and to deliver justice for the harm their emissions have already caused.” www.aptnnews.ca/national-new...

Suzuki says that, despite his understanding of the climate crisis, Carney — like all of us — is trapped by the economic and political systems we've created. And for Suzuki, our only hope for survival is to scrap those systems entirely. www.cbc.ca/radio/frontb...

Carney should sharpen his thinking on CCS. It’s unlikely to be useful in combating climate change--best to avoid yet another costly climate change “solution” that is overpromised, overpriced and has historically underperformed. www.fraserinstitute.org/commentary/c...

For over a century, scientists have sought to understand why some rivers form a single, meandering channel, while others split into multiple, crisscrossing streams. New research finally offers an answer. www.earth.com/news/why-riv...

Canada is experiencing longer, more intense fire seasons due to earlier snowmelt, prolonged droughts, extreme heat, and increasingly dry vegetation. These shifts create ideal conditions for frequent and severe wildfires. climateinstitute.ca/wildfires-ca...

“Wetlands are climate superheroes. They are the largest storage of carbon on land. Over 30 per cent of global terrestrial carbon is stored in wetlands — even more than forests, and yet they are overlooked in international policy debates." nation.africa/kenya/health...

"The science has been in for decades! In 1988, they said, global warming represented a threat second only to an all-out global nuclear war." www.cbc.ca/player/play/...

So often we talk about clean energy and hydro power as if there are no impacts, when there are tremendous impacts—especially with big hydro projects like Site C—and they’re kind of swept under the carpet under the pretext that we are providing clean energy. www.theopennotebook.com/2025/07/08/s...

How did we get here? We are going in the wrong direction when our federal and provincial governments abandon key democratic, environmental and socio-economic values that were hard-fought for over the last century. We were misled! www.pentictonherald.ca/spare_news/a...

Clearly, what Bill C-2 does to citizens’ rights, Bill C-5 does to environmental protections. A double blow to the rule of law that exists to protect us from government overreach, from doing what it wants instead of what the people will. We were deceived. nationalpost.com/opinion/lett...

A study published on Wednesday in the journal Earth System Science Data, found that — if emissions continue at 2024 rates — we have only three years until we exhaust our carbon budget to keep warming below that 1.5°C threshold. ici.radio-canada.ca/rci/en/news/...

The phenomenon has been compared to a figure skater adjusting their arms while spinning—mass moving away from the rotational axis causes a deceleration. In this case, the dam’s effect has led to a measurable slowdown in Earth’s rotation... www.argunners.com/nasa-chinese...
