There’s no such thing as a green car. What you’re thinking of is a less bad car that we’re at risk of having more of, and driving more, because we’ve been convinced it’s a green car. Again, see the thread.

The dirty Portlands gas plant on Toronto's waterfront is the city’s largest single emitter of GHGs and air pollution. It just got a 20-year licence extension against the wishes of the public and City Council. #onpoli #topoli #energy #climate #toronto www.nationalobserver.com/2026/03/10/n...

Great piece published in the Beach Metro about the insanity of hosting the city's largest polluter beside a new housing development. It's time to shutter the Portlands gas plant and replace it with wind and solar, storage and efficiency. #topoli #onpoli beachmetro.com/2026/03/08/l...

Never forget, the electric car is here to save the car industry, not the planet. Read this thread.

"Incorporating evidence from 26 studies on AVs’ impacts on the flow of car traffic, researchers find that a future where driverless cars become widespread is likely to increase the total number of miles traveled by vehicles in the US by around 5.95 percent." www.vox.com/future-perfe...

"The fossil fuel industry continues to pocket massive profits and subsidies. Meanwhile, everyday people bear the costs of climate catastrophe – from rising insurance premiums to lost livelihoods. Those who shoulder the blame must foot the bill." @antonioguterres #ActOnClimate

Stats Canada: home insurance rates up 21%, 2019-2023. Wildfires, floods, etc. means pressure on the insurance industry. How long before you can't pay? Or the industry simply collapses? I think we've cooked enough, fellow frogs, it really is time to add your voice. #environmentfirst #solutionfocused

The trains in the Netherlands are 100% #windpowered. Over 5,500 trips a day 100% #renewable. We have the solutions. Implement them. #ActOnClimate #climateemergency #climateaction #climate #energy #renewableenergy #renewables #GreenNewDeal

Another of Sustainable Milton's attack on an invasive species - it took 3 afternoons and a dozen volunteers to clear a small space of Ontario's worst invasive plant - PHRAGMITE. Unfortunately you can see this plant in many places around Milton. #environmentfirst #solutionfocused #sustainablemilton

A series of unfortunate circumstances make it necessary to postpone Thursday's speaker. The Board meeting will proceed as planned.

Register at us02web.zoom.us/.../register... Climate impacts are intensifying, but climate conversation has gone quiet. The strongest predictor of climate action is whether people talk about climate change.

An inspiring afternoon exploring diverse experiences with friends from the GTFS garden!From coffee farms in Peru, organic agriculture in Cuba, marshlands in Iraq and all the way back home to Oakville, surely an enriching and informative day! [email protected] for more details or RSVP

If we switched to #renewableenergy, the number of ships crossing the ocean would fall by 40% because they're just carrying coal & oil & gas!! buff.ly/dpTrSpO We have the solutions. Implement them. #ActOnClimate #ClimateAction #climate #energy #GreenNewDeal

“This would lock the world into a new and hellish “hothouse Earth” climate far worse than the 2-3C temperature rise the world is on track to reach. The climate would also be very different to the benign conditions of the past 11,000 years, during which the whole of human civilisation developed.”

Heard this one? The City of Barcelona traded 3 lanes of vehicle traffic for an exceptional 4.7km green pedestrian corridor in the heart of the Eixample grid. Businesses sued, & eventually won in court. Then they admitted that they actually like the change. Streets for people are good for business.

Most people don’t know this: Heat pumps REDUCE gas consumption even if running 100% on electricity from a gas fired power plant. More here in my piece for @carbonbrief.org👇 interactive.carbonbrief.org/factcheck/he...

Stephen Lecce says Darlington was “on budget & ahead of schedule.” OPG’s own filings say it’s at least 25% over budget and needs 6 more years. The truth matters. #onpoli #ontarionews www.cleanairalliance.org/lecces-nucle...

Our governing and financial systems have been captured triggering authoritarian drift (spread) because the more wealth accumulates at the top, the more power accumulates with it, setting off: 💰 privatization 👑 monopolization 🔨 dismantling democracy 🤑 regressive taxation

If we could all just be a little more like the trees, and their vast networks of community building mycelium networks...✨🌲 #NatureStrong

We don’t need a bigger waste incinerator in Brampton. The UK and Sweden produce half the waste / capita of Ontario and recycle more — it can be done. Burning is not the answer. #onpoli ttps://www.nationalobserver.com/2026/01/30/opinion/ontario-brampton-incinerator-health-concerns
