It's almost impossible for climate to not get you down from time to time but our next guest #Calgary's own #ChrisTurner argues there IS reason for "qualified, necessarily compromised" hope & optimism and we bet you'll agree! We hope you'll join us Feb 28th at 7pm!

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."

So we can create a #JustTransition for impacted industry workers because it's the right thing to do or because it's the prosperous thing to do. Either motivation is fine. Advocating for no plan whatsoever is not. This video from @MarkhamHislop is yet another important reason why we can't afford *not* to care for folks impacted by a rapidly changing world: https://youtu.be/O9wTg7EP-Uk

Here in #Alberta we don't have to start from square one. Want to ensure our #OilAndGas workers don't get left behind in the #EnergyTransition the whole world is moving towards faster than ever #IronAndEarth has already laid the foundation in their #ProsperousTransitionPlan. So let's do it.
Read their plan here: https://d3n8a8pro7vhmx.cloudfront.net/ironandearth/pages/1702/attachments/original/1635867585/PTP_ExecSummary.pdf?1635867585

If you're passionate about a #JustTransition (or designed or prosperous or what-have-you) for Canada's oil/gas workers you need to check out #IronAndEarth. Like so much else in the #ClimateEmergency the answers are known & good folks have already started on them. All they need now is YOU.

When you remove the politics from it #Alberta's #OilAndGas workers want what everybody else wants: to know their futures are secured & that they can build a life & provide for their loved ones. #IronAndEarth polling from May of 2021 reveals a strong majority are seeing the writing on the wall & want steps taken.

Historically what happens to workers & dependant communities from an industry that gets forever changed by technological advances or cultural transitions or other external forces is they are left to fend for themselves. An enormous, inexorable transition is upon us. Will we leave our fellow Albertans behind? Absent a plan (aka the #JustTransition), that's guaranteed /3

We don't advocate turning a blind eye to global tectonics like #Covid, the "Freedom Convoy," the #UkraineInvasion & whatever's next. But this is the #ClimateEra. Expect more mayhem not less. We need to be able to walk, chew gum & save the world at the same time. So let's do it
This is a #JustTransition 🧵
