  1. Two things I'll always be mad about:

    1. #TedCruz and #MarcoRubio running against each other in the 2016 #GOP primaries

    2. #JoeBiden shutting down the #KeystoneXL pipeline
  2. Ford went on to note that he’s been “preaching this stuff” about climate change and the increase in climate-related disasters “for 30 years.” He continued, “Everything we’ve said about climate change has come true. Why is that not sufficient that it alarms people that they change behaviors? Because of the entrenched status quo.”

    “I’m confident we can mitigate against [climate change], that we can buy time to change behaviors, to create new technologies, to concentrate more fully on implementation of those policies (...) But we have to develop the political will and intellectual sophistication to realize that we human beings are capable of change. We are incredibly adaptive, we are incredibly inventive. If we concentrate on a problem, we can fix it most times.”

  3. Harrison Ford Slams Donald Trump’s “Ignorance” About Climate Change: “Everything He Says Is a Lie”

    ”[Trump] doesn’t have any policies, he has whims. (...) The ignorance, the hubris, the lies, the perfidy. [Trump] knows better, but he’s an instrument of the status quo and he’s making money, hand over fist, while the world goes to hell in a hand basket. It’s unbelievable. I don’t know of a greater criminal in history.”

    Oh, and just so it’s clear: the #KeystoneXL revival plan isn’t Carney’s idea, it’s Trump’s:

    “The Trump team's plan to resuscitate a dead oil project”

  5. "If you felt like wildfires and their impacts were more extreme in the past year – you’re right"

    #ClimateChange has "supercharged the world’s wildfires in unpredictable and devastating ways", emphasizing "the urgent need to rapidly cut greenhouse gas emissions"

  6. "Atmospheric carbon dioxide levels rose by a record amount in 2024, reaching new highs and locking in further long-term warming and extreme weather"

  7. 'Several factors contributed to the leap in CO2, including another year of unrelenting fossil fuel burning despite a pledge by the world’s countries in 2023 to "transition away" from coal, oil and gas.'

  8. Reminder: more pipelines for Mark Carney, Donald Trump, Danielle Smith & Scott Moe mean more #Drought, #Wildfires, and #ExtremeWeather for the rest of us.

    The #KeystoneXL pipeline Carney & Trump are talking about resurrecting would be a "fuse to the biggest carbon bomb on the planet":

  9. #uspol #Trump #KXL #KeystoneXL
    Also on BBC: Trump trying to bring back the Keystone XL tar sands pipeline that we blocked in an incredibly long, tough campaign ten years ago.

    Hopefully "political uncertainty" will derail this zombie project

  10. "What makes tar sands particularly odious is that the energy you get out in the end, per unit carbon dioxide, is poor. It’s equivalent to burning coal in your automobile. We simply cannot be that stupid"

  11. Reminder: the ICJ recently affirmed that 'countries are legally bound to reduce greenhouse gas emissions', 'and not contribute significantly to global warming. Crucially, the court also affirmed that a clean, healthy and sustainable environment is a human right'

  12. Just like in the years before it was finally cancelled, Carney & Trump working to resurrect the #KeystoneXL pipeline would draw protests, pushback and a pile of lawsuits.

  13. Extra bonus for the exceptionally strong of stomach: Danielle Smith offering advice on how to talk Trump's "love language":

    "Let me tell you how Canada being able to provide you raw materials or critical minerals or energy and natural gas allows you to have energy dominance in the world"

    #ClimateCrisis #CDNPoli #Canada #KeystoneXL #KXL #NoPipelines #ElbowsUp #ABPoli

  14. The source "emphasized that Carney brought up the cancelled pipeline", and that #KeystoneXL "was just one example of the ways Canada could work more closely with the U.S."

    This policy is *literally the opposite* of what Carney promised in the election. Canadians want to diversify away from the States, not increase integration!

  15. "Prime Minister Mark Carney raised the prospect of reviving the Keystone XL pipeline project with U.S. President Donald Trump as part of a larger pitch on linking energy cooperation"

    Gee, it only seems like a few months ago that Carney ran a whole election campaign on the idea of Canada becoming *less* dependent on the US.

  16. Most of us thought we'd seen the last of #KeystoneXL -- but after all these years, Carney & Trump want to bring this monster back to life.

    As a refresher, here are 5 reasons Canadians were glad to see the end of Keystone XL back in 2021:

  17. "News of the discussion [about reviving Keystone XL] pleased Alberta Premier Danielle Smith, who welcomed the reports Wednesday that Carney had raised the pipeline with Trump"

    This what you voted for, Carney supporters? Because it's sure as hell not what I voted for.

  18. Canadians & Americans from all walks of life, with First Nations on point, fought damned hard for 15 years to stop Keystone XL from going ahead. Hard to imagine how Carney & Trump could show *less* respect for any of us at this point.

  19. Mark "Decarbonized Oil" Carney secretly moves to resurrect Stephen Harper's long-dead Keystone XL pipeline.

    Mark Carney never fails to disappoint.
