  3. Mark Carney and David Eby want to much more of this, along with more deadly heatwaves and wildfires, and they want you to pay for the pipelines to make it happen. Is that what you voted for? #bcpoli #cdnpoli #climatecrisis

  8. @ChrisIstace

    Hoorah for BC NDP announcing tender for utility battery system. It's a start, small start.

    It only emphasuzs how little new energy our Petro state 🇨🇦 builds, pumping climate change out our pipelines and ports.

    A start

    There's one measure of defeating VAST FOREST WILDFIRES, one measure of fighting EXXON Heat that killed 20,000 in Europe in June:

    How much carbon fueled energy has been REPLACED by sun and wind.

    Only path is solar and wind.

  12. As multiple wildfires burn out of control across BC, former NDP MPs & MLAs, Indigenous leaders and community leaders have written an open letter to David Eby and the BC NDP caucus, calling for action on the climate crisis.

    "Signing the letter was, first of all, an expression of disappointment that this government has retreated so wholly from its climate commitment (…). Secondly, it’s an expression of hope that they’ll do the right thing and recommit to the climate program and address climate change."

    "I can’t think of a less fair future, a less equal future, than one in which runaway climate change is allowed to continue."

  14. Smoke from wildfires burning in northern Ontario made Toronto the most polluted city in the world on Wednesday.

    Far-reaching damage from Canadian wildfires caused 82,000 premature deaths in 2023, including 33,000 in the US and 22,000 in Europe.

  16. "Cities across north-eastern Canada and the US are continuing to suffer from intense smoke brought on by hundreds of wildfires burning across Canada."

    "There are 955 wildfires actively burning across Canada - nearly 200 of those in Ontario - according to the latest numbers".

    "Many of the wildfires remain out of control, forcing evacuations and destroying homes and infrastructure."

    We can't afford any more pipelines from Mark Carney, Danielle Smith or Doug Ford.

  18. Big news!

    I'm running for nomination as one of COPE's candidates for Vancouver's Park Board in the October elections. I've spent a lot of time photographing nature in city's parks, and I want to ensure our nature is well taken care of.

    The nomination requires fundraising, so I'm asking any BC residents who want progressive, nature-minded politics in Vancouver to please donate to my run through this link!

    Ummm:

    "The lawmakers threatened that the United States may send its agencies into Canada to manage the problem if Canadian officials don’t address it more vigorously."

    Another flavour of invasion threat.

  25. "Without urgent action, Canada will experience climate change twice as fast as other parts of the world. Yet Canada has missed every climate target we’ve ever set, and is still approving new fossil fuel projects that will lock us in to future greenhouse gas emissions."

  27. Reminder: Mark Carney is trying to give himself the power to greenlight industrial projects like pipelines even if we know those projects would push species to extinction.

  29. This kind of politics makes it nearly impossible to work across party lines. How do you find a shared purpose with people that just call you trash or who are busy in their spare time breaking the country apart?

    If Findlay’s party forms government with this no sense at the hilt we’re in for a rough time.

    Imagine them governing in a crisis? Culture wars are boring.

  31. "The science is clear: to avert the worst impacts of climate change and preserve a liveable planet, global warming needs to be limited as much as possible and as a matter of urgency."

    "Every fraction of a degree of warming matters. With every additional increment of global warming, changes in extremes and risks become larger."

    It is crucial we act to minimize the damage by "urgently and significantly reducing greenhouse gas emissions and phasing out fossil fuels."

  33. Wildfire smoke attacks your lungs, heart and brain:

    Harmful particulates in wildfire smoke travel deep into the lungs, slip into the bloodstream, and get into the brain directly through the nose. When toxins reach the brain, they can cause inflammation, lack of focus, and headache; long-term exposure leads to brain damage and cognitive decline.

  40. Somehow I missed that #Alberta , #BC, and the #NorthwestTerritories are joining the #Yukon to stop switching their clocks back and forth: cbc.ca/news/canada/edmonton/da

    "Cows, notorious for their inability to read clocks, are hungry when the sun rises, he said." (Infants too are not governed by the clock.)

    Apparently Alberta and BC are adopting permanent daylight time; I'd have preferred standard, but the most important thing is to stop switching.
