Credit to Steven Guilbeault... resigning from a government that is attacking everything you've fought for your whole life is the right thing to do. Here's hoping he becomes an outspoken activist against the federal assault on nature and the climate once again #cdnpoli globalnews.ca/news/1186967...

We deserve better than corporate spin from a fossil fuel corporation and the government bankrolling it. This government’s fixation on LNG expansion is deeply troubling, misguided, and disconnected from what’s best for British Columbia’s future and the current realities of global energy markets.

Asia was supposed to be an enormous growth market for LNG. Not anymore. Shortages, spiking prices, massive uncertainty. Asia is moving to renewables instead www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

DRIPA is not a threat to certainty; it is our only path toward it. A suspension of Indigenous rights would torch nation relations, Horgan’s legacy, and block the real path forward - long overdue good-faith negotiations. Thanks for having me on, Mo @vancolour.bsky.social! #bcpoli

Good god Moe Sohota on CBC calling Indigenous leaders extremists for demanding the @bcndpcaucus.bsky.social uphold the DRIPA legislation passed unanimously by the Legislature seven years ago is a real bad look

Fascism is not inevitable.

Exclusive: Renewables grew to almost 50% of global electricity capacity in 2025 after solar boost

Come on where are the @bcndpcaucus.bsky.social MLAs who will refuse to vote for amendments to DRIPA? I know these people know better.

Gee it's interesting how when a centrist candidate wins a leadership race everybody tells the left to fall in line and blames the "division" for their poor prospects... But when a left-winger wins all of a sudden it's acceptable to trash them in a press release or refuse to meet with them.

The BC Conservatives just announced Richmond Centre MLA Hon Chan has been removed from the caucus and is said to be facing "serious criminal charges" "Our caucus wishes to be clear, any allegations of domestic violence are taken seriously." #bcpoli

Enough with the FALSE CHOICE between increasing infill density or increasing the urban tree canopy. BOTH are not only possible, but absolutely necessary. Good design is the key. The real design challenge isn’t building density or the space needed for trees… it’s the space we still surrender to cars.

"The fight against the #climatecrisis now appears to have disappeared from Ottawa's radar entirely... it is taking a dangerous road" @alexandreshields.bsky.social www.nationalobserver.com/2026/03/17/n... #cdnpoli

In their new feature documentary, Pípsell: The Last Stand, award-winning journalist Brandi Morin and filmmaker Geordie Day expose the human and environmental costs of Canada’s TMX pipeline. This film is co-produced with @ricochetmedia.bsky.social

We live in capitalism. Its power seems inescapable. So did the divine right of kings. Any human power can be resisted and changed by human beings. Resistance and change often begin in art, and very often in our art, the art of words.

if we’re fomenting rage against First Nations because people are being given two years notice to vacate their expiring leaseholds on reserve land then we’ve kind of lost the plot

Iranians have a "misguided religion", says a man who helped facilitate the transport of five red heifers from Texas to Tel Aviv because many evangelical Christians believe a red cow needs to be sacrificed to usher in the End Times.

America is being led by Evangelical zealots who are cheering on Trump and Netanyahu's Armageddon to usher in the Second Coming of Republican Jesus 😬 newrepublic.com/post/207270/...

‘Natural gas’ prices in the EU have shot up ~40% in a day on news that Qatar is ceasing liquid ‘natural’ gas production at the world’s largest plant. In related news, sunlight and wind remain free.

They were going to pass rules to phase out gas stoves, until they received 20,000 public comments against the regulations. Except, oops, it turns out the comments were generated by AI.

God this is just so wrong.

i cannot stop thinking about this man, who survived the Rohingya genocide but couldn’t survive border patrol. “He died trying to get home” is a gut punch

Ah, it’s so disappointing when politicians exploit cultural differences to fearmonger to Chinese voters about drugs. The important and nuanced details get completely lost in the discourse.

As the guy who wrote the book on zoning abolition, I'd like to go on record as saying: if you can use zoning to stop the concentration camps, fucking go for it.

Some day we'll all regret this & we'll hold hearings & rend garments & pledge "never again" & we'll be just as full of shit as we were last time.

God bless the Streisand effect

I'm sorry wat

Had a great chat to one of the best climate journalists in the world, @amywestervelt.bsky.social, about criminalisation & repression of climate & environmental protest around the world the other day. Here’s the result.

People often ask me why I left the U.S. and there are various reasons but the thing that made me start really making an exit strategy was when journalists covering Standing Rock were being arrested. Historically a very bad sign for democracy. Seeing it get worse and more blatant is scary and sad

Abolish ICE. There’s no reforming it. There’s no compromise. There’s only one way to rein in ICE’s terror campaign. Abolish it.

1 day left. This is it! Join the NDP to vote in the leadership race and be part of this surging campaign. Don't sit on the sidelines. Join today: https://avilewis.link/join

It's weird how after every good thing/gain (even if we don't call it a victory) people circle up to insist we shouldn't celebrate. Celebrating is not how people give up, in my experience; believing we can't win, never win, and have no power is (with a side of joylessness).

Happening now: “ICE out” protests from East Coast to West Coast in solidarity 🔥

This January is already more January than any January has ever Januaryed.

Dear Climate Bluesky, 1️⃣ Learn about the arrest of Harjeet Singh and his wife, Jyoti Awasthi, by the Indian government this week. 2️⃣ Follow these accounts: @fossiltreaty.bsky.social @tzeporah.bsky.social @alexraf.bsky.social @harjeet11.bsky.social Solidarity and awareness matter more than ever. ✊

Unhook ourselves from oil and gas and we unhook ourselves from dependency on dictators, autocrats and expansionist regimes all over the planet. Renewables and other low-carbon energy sources are not just good climate sense. They are also good political sense.

Your periodic reminder that the US is a petrostate, has been governing like one for decades, and ending the fossil fuel era can't come fast enough.

Blows my mind that some of the same journalists who see Trump as a want-to-be dictator at home are earnestly discussing the "challenges" for this same man to "bring democracy" to a country it just illegal invaded. Please grow up.

I simply cannot believe we are doing this all over again. America must be stopped. www.cbc.ca/news/politic...

Saw Bluesky described as where elder millennials go to retire from the internet, and immediately felt the peace that passes all understanding wash over me. None of have to struggle any longer. We completed our time.

I admire Zelensky's composure. This is beyond infuriating.

The person who made the decision to hold this story has never been a news reporter or a news editor. Really sickening.

THE RISE OF END TIMES FASCISM My first major piece of the new Trump era, co-written with @astra.bsky.social. The governing ideology of the far right has become a monstrous, supremacist survivalism. Our task is to build a movement strong enough to stop them. www.theguardian.com/us-news/ng-i...

The only way to get back on track to the Paris Accords — which aims to limit global warming to 1.5 to 2.0 C — is to pull the “Emergency Brake” climate solutions. Towards the top of the list is curbing methane emissions as quickly as possible. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

We had so much fun postering around Amazon's offices to show that Amazon corporate workers are pushing back on the company's reckless AI plans. Sign our letter if you work at Amazon or sign our solidarity statement if you don't, link in bio! TY to friends at @stand.earth @troublemakers.bsky.social!

The magnitude of the housing shortage is huge, the problems chronic, but the housing crisis is solvable: latest research by @1alexhemingway.bsky.social. Reforms from a flurry of government announcements gesture at the right ideas but fall short in scale and implementation.

I understand the impulse to relocate to places perceived climate havens. My concern is how this leads to places (and people) being seen as expendable and not worth fighting for. Who will be left behind? Taken to the extreme, it's the billionaire fantasy of fleeing to Mars while Earth burns.
