@jkenney Scientists from Stanford Energy Modelling Forum have found that carbon taxes substantially reduce emissions and generate long-term economic growth. Being short-sighted isn't the solution. #cdnpoli https://t.co/OCeBT7tLLJ #FactBack@protectwintersc https://t.co/figYZngkID
@jkenney Sorry to break it to you, but putting a price on carbon is proven to be effective. From 2007 and 2016, BC's real GDP grew by 19%, while net emissions declined by 3.7%. #cdnpoli https://t.co/XFIHOjp3e3 #FactBack@protectwintersc https://t.co/figYZngkID
@StefanMolyneux Unfortunately, this time it is. A large part of anthropogenic climate change resulting from CO2 is irreversible on a multi-century to millennial timescale. https://t.co/aZx9SZlorL #FactBack@protectwintersc https://t.co/figYZngkID
@Paola_Dec1231 A Carbon Tax with multiple instruments, including tech mandates and targeted support for innovation, is key to avoid path dependencies and lock-in of long-lived, high-carbon assets. #cdnpoli https://t.co/kKgQGCz0Kr #FactBack https://t.co/figYZmYJk3
@MaximeBernier Environment and Climate Change Canada, Fisheries and Oceans Canada, Natural Resources Canada, and university experts agree that Canada is warming about twice as fast as the global average. https://t.co/XqbtcGNds3 #FactBack@protectwintersc https://t.co/figYZmYJk3
@MaximeBernier “I don’t believe that the main reason is human activity.” (5:40) Fossil fuels are really old and have a different chemical fingerprint than other GHG. Scientists can pinpoint them. https://t.co/1MRELPBC64 #FactBack@protectwintersc https://t.co/figYZmYJk3
@FriendsOScience@GlobalEdmonton A large fraction of the signatories have creds like “Patrick Mellett, architect and CEO”; and “Fintan Ryan, Retired Senior Airline Captain”. Yep, an airline Captain. #cdnpoli https://t.co/dy0CzytYKa #FactBack@protectwintersc https://t.co/figYZmYJk3
@nspector4 Climate change will cost Canada's economy $5 billion per year by 2020 and upwards of $43 billion per year by 2050. Ignoring climate change costs now will only cost us more later. #cdnpoli https://t.co/coMlVeKu95 #FactBack@protectwintersc https://t.co/figYZmYJk3
@HenryMakow Go fact yourself: the Antarctic ice sheet has lost approximately 125 gigatons of ice each year since 2002. 125 GIGATONS! EACH YEAR! 😱 https://t.co/xL05D1C0wd #FactBack@protectwintersc https://t.co/figYZngkID
@jkenney Liberals or not, our economy depends on a stable climate and climate change HURTS the economy. Putting a price on carbon is central to keeping climate change under control. #cdnpoli https://t.co/WcyiHFLtlr #FactBack@protectwintersc https://t.co/figYZmYJk3
@Franktmcveety Go Fact Yourself: Human-generated CO2 throws the natural carbon cycle out of balance. We now have surpassed an unprecedented 400 ppm of CO2. 📈 https://t.co/gps7TXF9N6 #FactBack@protectwintersc https://t.co/figYZmYJk3
@Carbongate Since 1948, Canada has warmed by 1.7 degrees, with the Prairies and Nothern Canada warming by 2.3 degrees. https://t.co/R98z7CwOMq #FactBack@protectwintersc https://t.co/figYZmYJk3
@EcoSenseNow Go Fact Yourself: 🧐2002, 2005, 2007, 2009, 2010, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018 and 2019 have all been hotter than 1998. https://t.co/mLr3FbqFZq #FactBack@protectwintersc https://t.co/figYZmYJk3
@safety_canada7 Go fact yourself: climate change IS happening. The global annual average temperature is 0.8° Celsius higher than it was in 1880. https://t.co/eO5oqix70t #FactBack@protectwintersc https://t.co/figYZmYJk3
@tan123 Go Fact Yourself: Our emissions may stop an ice age 50,000 years from now, but they're causing extreme heat, drought, and sea level rise in the next 5, 50, 500 years... https://t.co/ignmzSYbe5 #FactBack@protectwintersc https://t.co/figYZmYJk3
@EcoSenseNow The IPCC report states between 1901 and 2000 the average sea leve rise was 1.7mm/year. Between 1993 and 2010 the average sea level rise doubled to 3.2mm/year. https://t.co/aZx9SZ3N3b #FactBack@protectwintersc https://t.co/figYZmYJk3
@MaximeBernier Western Canada will see a 50% increase in the number of dry windy days where forest fires start. Eastern Canada will see up to 300% increase in “fire weather” days. https://t.co/obBTChZjWa #FactBack@protectwintersc https://t.co/figYZmYJk3
