@bernstein_micha @CleanProsperity Great news. This is what is needed.

[Shelley MacDougall @SLMacDougall]

@MathAcadia @AcadiaU @acadialibrary @acadiastudents @AcadiaScience Clever! :)

This article gives a good overview of Canada’s climate plan. Looking at segments of the plan in isolation, like the TMX or carbon tax, has us missing the bigger picture. The plan makes sense; it is ambitious but doable. Worth a read: https://t.co/onwIO2HOj3 via @NatObserver

@mminelle Been there, done that!

[Shelley MacDougall @SLMacDougall]

@wef Guilty as charged, though since trading in my compact car for an SUV, I try to drive it as little as possible. We really are going the wrong direction, though. CO2 emissions of 200g/km. Wow!

@carolinevsequin The first year is especially hard work, but take heart. Each year is about 50% as hard as the year before.

I was lucky enough to witness this launch this morning. Very impressive!

@EcofiscalCanada @Brendan_Frank This is how carbon pricing is supposed to work! Rather than debate whether to price carbon, let’s debate what to do with the revenue.

@agrobins @AcadiaBusiness @AcadiaAthletics So happy to see this!

[Shelley MacDougall @SLMacDougall]

@WaveEnergyScot I’d love to!

[Shelley MacDougall @SLMacDougall]

Lots of fun. I’m lucky to have such great teammates. Thanks to @NSCurl and all the volunteers for making this event possible.

I don’t know the location, dates, or the source of these images, but wow! A picture is worth a thousand words.

Yesterday, the federal government announced details of its output-based pricing system for large emitters. The system protects competitiveness and rewards firms that make their operations cleaner https://t.co/w5agrXEnad #cdnecon #CarbonPricingWorks

The federal output-based carbon pricing system works because it's not an exemption https://t.co/Pm8kcRNObU via @andrew_leach

[Shelley MacDougall @SLMacDougall]

Nova Scotians need to know this. Though we have made improvements, we are far from good. With our go-it-alone cap and trade system and its substantial free allowances, we are shirking our responsibility.

For those who prefer static plots...

Can make out ON's move away from coal.
PE's move to wind+imports (note the emission intensity of imports doesn't count...)
AB, SK and NS outliers in the pack. All moving lower...
