  1. From #SiliconValley to the #Tarsands to the #Internet itself, enormous public investment was required to make it happen before rugged individualism took on all the credit. Where's the similar investment in Climate? We asked Canadian tech writer @parismarx.

  2. There were some good things on #Climate in the latest federal budget but nothing much on #ActiveTransportation or some of the big ticket #UrbanPlanning wins available to us. Where was the big public sector push? We asked Canadian tech writer @parismarx.

  3. #ArtificialIntelligence is set to impact just about every thing you can imagine in ways we can only begin to guess at. How will it impact humankind's collective #ClimateAction efforts & the global #RaceToNetZero? What do we need to be especially vigilant of?

  5. Did Elon #Musk snooker the world with his #Hyperloop efforts and if yes what are Albertans to take of this given ongoing efforts to build one between Calgary & Edmonton? Check out this interesting conversation with Canadian tech writer @parismarx!

  6. Electric or not the world has an #SUV problem. Great big people movers require great big energy sources whether they run on gas or lithium-based batteries. Explore this facet of the global #EnergyTransition & more with Canadian tech writer @parismarx!

  9. "It’s tempting to think that the world’s biggest industries, corporations and start-up geniuses may start taking some of that weight from our shoulders, which makes all the more disappointing when a lot of the solutions don’t do what they say they will."

  10. "Every human looking for people's votes anywhere in the world should be able to articulate their plan for the #EnergyTransition. Here in Alberta that goes double. As far as the already-upon-us GLOBAL #RaceToNetZero the time has come for Albertans to not hide but to again lead & prosper."

  11. The #EnergyTransition is HERE & Canada's just invested $20 billion in a #BatteryGigafactory which is promised to be worth $200 billion to our economy over the coming decades. We asked Canadian tech writer @parismarx what he thinks of the deal

  12. #Lithium plays a big role in #EnergyTransition. Once again it's a critical resource AB has an abundance of beneath our feet. How can we be sure our land/wildlife/health will be protected this time? How can we ALL prosper? We asked
    @parismarx on ACOC!

  13. "Navigating a brand new economy will be the work of every city in the world between now and 2050 at least so what happens to an energy jurisdiction whose prime strategy during an #EnergyTransition is to deny its existence?"

  14. "If #ClassicDenialism was a roadblock, things like this #15MinuteCities pushback isn't even a pothole. At most it's that bump in the road you expect from time to time when you're moving on to a better place and like all such bumps it's better off behind us and soon forgotten."

  15. "None of this has the oomph of #ClassicDenialism, the roadblock to #ClimateAction for decades that influenced whole swaths of the global population right up until we tasted the smoke ourselves & #Renewables started winning the dollars & cents game."

  16. "When you can no longer debate the science all that remains is debating (& delaying/fearmongering/ragefarming) the solutions but what we're seeing with #15MinuteCities is it's pretty thin gruel. There's no 'there' there."

  18. When all's said & done it's possible the end result of all that #15MinuteCities fearmongering/ragefarming is today there are more people in the world familiar with a better way to build communities.

    We put it all under the #ClimateLens for YOU.

  19. "We humans spent the first two decades of the 21st century debating whether the greatest challenge in all of human history even existed despite an ever-growing global scientific consensus that #ClimateChange was real, caused by humans & required big moves."

  21. Alberta's an energy province in a global energy transition but that dialogue is almost entirely absent from the discourse heading into our provincial elections this spring. We asked AB climate scientists what they'd like to hear from our leaders

  25. Your #AlbertaTransition 🧵 /5

    "I don't care what we call it. You say Just. They say Prosperous. I say Designed. What if we just settled on the #Alberta Transition and what if we understood that all this debate is really about is having a plan or not having a plan. I vote having a plan."

  26. Your #AlbertaTransition 🧵 /4

    "Some object to the word JUST. Others to the word TRANSITION. For still others it's when you put those words together. These purely semantical arguments aren't designed to scratch the surface let alone begin addressing this eminently forseeable unprecedented challenge no longer just on our horizon."

  27. Your #AlbertaTransition 🧵 /3

    #JustTransition: the idea of having and executing a plan that ensures vulnerable industry workers and other historically disadvantaged groups don't get left behind in the already-upon-us #GlobalEnergyTransition. Imagine that being a bad thing. Regardless I couldn't be happier. Mark the day: Alberta's first OFFICIAL #climate election has arrived at long last. You. Are. HERE.

  28. Your #AlbertaTransition 🧵 /2

    "In the very earliest days of 2023 the opening, largely semantic salvo in #Alberta's next provincial election involved the concept of a #Just Transition, the idea of having and executing a plan that ensures vulnerable industry workers and other historically disadvantaged groups don't get left behind in the already-upon-us #GlobalEnergyTransition."
