I’m so excited to share I’ve been selected for the 2024 #climatebreakthroughaward to build a globally coordinated Indigenous climate initiative to address climate change. 2024 Cohort includes Kimiko Hirata, Alex Doukas, and Tero Mustonen. Learn more at https://t.co/V0ilbJc0jJ
Indigenous Peoples are facing the impacts of climate change - have been doing so for decades. Yet, when it comes to funding for climate solutions, they rarely get any funds. Please uplift our communities so that we are leading our own efforts.

Indigenous Peoples throughout the world are disproportionately impacted by fossil fuels and the increasing impacts of climate change. More carbon markets, offsets and removals must not be considered as solutions.-Tom Goldtooth, IEN
Today we sent a letter to the Prime Minister about eliminating #fossilfuel subsidies through a robust assessment framework #cdnpoli
The letter is signed by over 100 environmental, health, human rights & civil society organizations across Canada

The USA and Canada have got to stop the environmental racism it inflicts on the First Nations and frontline communities of the extraction industry. Another deadly spill.
After months of silence about a toxic tailings leak at Kearl, Imperial Oil, the Alberta Energy Regulator, and the Government of Alberta were quick to deny, but remain slow to act.

STATEMENT: ECCC’s Fisheries Act finding confirms worst fears of residents, contradicts statements made by the Alberta Energy Regulator and Premier Smith #abpoli#cdnpoli#ableg#yyc#yeg
All carbon offsets, trading, and market-based systems are distractions from true climate action to phase out fossil fuels. Hands off Indigenous lands! #StopCO2Colonialism#NoFalseSolutions
