    "Suzuki: As the world burns, the powerful deny and delay

    'Why do we stay on this destructive path, which leads to more pollution, extreme weather events, water shortages, health crises and wealth inequality?'

    We could be happier, healthier and more economically secure—if we were to act on the knowledge that many of our problems are related. For example, addressing the climate crisis will also help resolve issues around pollution, health and economic disparity.

    But we’re not only up against a 'polycrisis, we’re also facing varying degrees of denial. At its most blatant, the United States president has labelled the clear and overwhelming scientific and observable evidence for human-caused climate disruption as a 'hoax' and is promoting polluting, climate-altering fossil fuels over cleaner, more efficient renewable energy.

    Denial in Canada may not be as blatant, but it’s still dangerous. Taking a page from former Prime Minister Stephen Harper’s playbook, Prime Minister Mark Carney is arguing that climate policies are “too expensive for Canadians.” His government is scrapping effective measures such as carbon pricing and oil and gas industry pollution caps and is going all in on increased fossil fuel development, including liquefied natural gas projects and bitumen pipelines.

    Carney even boasted that Canada is producing more oil than ever, overtaken only by the U.S. and Russia.

    It’s absurd. Record high temperatures and humidity are killing hundreds of thousands of people a year worldwide and sending many more to hospitals. Recent heat and storms in Europe have killed thousands. Schools have been closed, productivity hindered, events cancelled and power grids strained. Some European countries have shut down nuclear power plants because river water has warmed too much to cool them."

  3. "It’s crazy that we celebrate people who are billionaires. It should be illegal for Christ’s sake. It’s got nothing to do with money, and everything to do with how big their dick is. We should have awards and whenever someone achieves $100 million, which is already obscene, we give them a bronze statue of a dick, and when you get $1 billion, we could give them an even bigger dick." #DavidSuzuki #Canada #oligarchie #tooLate #climateChange ipolitics.ca/2025/07/02/its-to

  4. Sign the David Suzuki Foundation's petition: 'Stop Canada from gutting environmental protections'

    'Canada is dismantling environmental protections at a dizzying pace. On top of a series of climate policy rollbacks, the federal government is proposing to open loopholes in environmental laws to “simplify” decisions about major projects like pipelines.'

    'Chipping away at the laws that keep us and the planet healthy is not in the public interest. It’s pandering to industries that wreak havoc on ecosystems and the climate, and it’s right out of the Trump playbook.'

  7. David Suzuki has backed out of JNF of Canada event. But his foundation, davidsuzuki.org/, hasn’t yet explained its relationship with other pro-Israel donor organizations.

  9. I just watched a Nature of Things show, from 2022, with David Suzuki's daughter Sarika Cullis-Suzuki (she and Anthony Morgan took over hosting duties in 2023). This episode was called True Survivors. It was on TV, but it's also on CBC-Gem.

    Clearly there had been some tension between her and her Dad regarding the prospects of climate change, which this show briefly touched on. She certainly doesn't deny climate change, but seems more open to the idea of humanity being able to successfully adapt to the changing conditions it imposes, rather than feeling we must strive to mitigate it or else face disaster.

  11. Trade without accountability, pollution without borders
    by David Suzuki February 25, 2026

    "No executive — in Washington, Ottawa or elsewhere — should have the unilateral power to dismantle protections, bypass accountability and impose dangerous consequences on people beyond their borders."

  13. "After years of careful design and consultation, the federal government has walked away from one of its most effective tools to ensure Canadians can buy affordable electric vehicles — a tool proven in B.C., California and Quebec."
