  3. As we engage this new year, this is a great video (3 minutes long) to watch and ask ourselves, what's changed in the past year. We've known what we know for decades, and these very companies were some of the first to sound the alarm. Now, what are we doing about it?

  7. Blair's stance risks giving political cover to those delaying climate action. We need bold leadership, not excuses. #ClimateLeadership #NetZeroNow

  8. #ClimateLeadership, & Joe

    Ok team human, we can do this! Let's do what we need to do to prevent a worldwide climate catastrophe that will cause untold misery & suffering for billions of people. Some of which, have yet to be born.

    What's that Joe?

    Oh? You're asking can we put off for a few weeks doing what needs to be done because you've booked a jet travel package holiday to Australia, but after that you'll think about doing what needs to be done

  9. 🌞 **Great news for New York!** The state has achieved a major milestone by reaching 6 gigawatts of distributed solar energy, enough to power over a million homes and businesses—a year ahead of schedule! This achievement has created more than 14,000 clean energy jobs and attracted $9.2 billion in private investment. 🌱💡

  11. This is what climate leadership looks like. Not the “axe the tax” baloney pedalled by Poilievre or the flip-flop vote pandering by Eby & Singh.

    “Such a last-minute motion at the large multi-day conference would not usually make it to the voting stage…but this one was accepted as an emergency resolution &passed overwhelmingly by [local govt] delegates representing …from across the province.”

  12. "While I cannot give you exact numbers right now, what I can tell you is that British Columbians will see more in the rebate cheques and that communities can count on the government being able to provide the funds they need to make their communities, more resilient and more able to mitigate against these growing, more frequent climate events," she said.

  13. As the B.C. election campaign kicks off this week, mayors and councillors from across the province are sending a blunt message to the political parties vying to form government: don’t axe the carbon tax.

    (There's haiku/senryu/poetry at the end here. Those who tuned based on hash tag, feel free to scroll down.)

    Actions still matter. Leadership matters.

    In the US, I think with Bernie or Warren at the helm, we might have bent capitalism more. Biden wasn't up to that. He's not the guy that's best for the job. But two party democracy without rank order voting makes it not about what's best but what's better. The choice in 2024 in the US is only how not to slide backward, as we would under Trump, not how to best move forward, as neither really promises. Still, even this matters.

    Biden is the must-vote-for option in the US. Third parties have no chance. Not voting or voting for a third party, is equivalent to a half-vote for Trump and a half-vote for Biden. That's a TERRIBLE way to protest.

    The slim hope is that Biden will change, learn, grow. Or if he passes, maybe Harris will be less centrist. There is no similar hope from the GOP.

    Other countries face differences in detail, but there are analogs globally. We need to support the best political voices that will help us more, but only to the extent those voices can be elected, not so as to get distracted about getting the electable-but-only-better-not-best candidate from getting in.

    And we need to support democracy, because under democracy there can be dissent, and climate leaders who are unelected can still influence. Under autocracy, as Trump promises, and others elsewhere do too, such thoughtful climate dissenters will be silenced.

    Get the word out. Find doable options to suggest or do. Contribute how you can. Bolster others who can do more.

    Yeah, it's hard some days to know if there's hope, but don't let that worry distract you. I recently wrote this haiku, hoping to provoke folks a bit:

    Climate work to do.
    But, to paraphrase Zevon,
    We'll do it when dead.

    But maybe the tone was wrong. Maybe instead I should have channeled Zevon differently, in a more upbeat way:

    Climate work daunts us.
    May be already pointless.
    Ponder that when dead.

    In other words, let's just presume there's hope, as we can't prove there's not. Hope isn't a probability, it's a oath. Erring on the side of defeatism, presuming there's no path when maybe there is, is a risk of giving up unnecessarily. There's time enough for being defeatist once we've killed ourselves from being hopeful.

  15. @Snoro

    Shame on Norway, which I have sometimes thought (hoped?) was on the right track seeing that tethering their country's wealth to oil was not a sustainable path. It seems to have backed off from this but it really needs to harness its wealth and power and intelligence for something better than this kind of thing, and instead to show some leadership going forward. (The US must as well, by the way.)

    Going forward relies on leaving financial opportunities passed up because those "opportunities" are nothing more than short-term enrichment at the expense of humanity's future. That's a hard political path, but it must be done.

  16. The UAE is ready to host the world’s largest climate summit in 2023. The country, which is the first Arab nation to host COP28, has announced its ambitious plan to cut emissions by 40% and boost renewable energy by 50% by 2030. The UAE also aims to showcase its leadership in clean technology, green hydrogen, and carbon capture. #UAE #COP28 #ClimateLeadership apnews.com/article/uae-emirate

    I recently read several of the selections from The Best American Science and Nature Writing 2022 anthology. Ayana Elizabeth Johnson edited this edition, and I was intrigued by her initiatives, leading me to The All We Can Save Project.

  18. Il souligne aussi le fait que l’apparence d’un conflit d’intérêts sape la confiance des militants et que « nous ne sommes pas en train de gagner » ce combat aujourd’hui.

    Ce discours dresse un constat sans appel sur l'état de l'action climatique aujourd'hui
