New Report exposes how PFAS "forever chemicals" are a serious public health problem, despite what industry lobbyists have claimed.
The "Forever Lobbying Project" exposes the real cost of PFAS pollution. ⬇️

This is an exciting development.

Now that renewables are starting to beat fossils on cost, cities can save money while generating cleaner, healthier energy.

Hats off to Halifax for showing Canadian cities how it can be done!

"We don’t want to do this."

And yet this developer group is launching a legal challenge to stop Toronto from taking climate action while Ontario sleeps at the wheel.

Tell them to to drop their legal attack:

I'm so thankful to have a chance to work with physicians like Dr. Mili Roy, who are making the case for a strong and fair Emissions Cap.

As we watch the unfolding disaster in LA with horror, let's remember that 🇨🇦 is far from immune.

New analysis from @InsuranceBureau shows 2024 was the costliest year for severe weather-related losses in Cdn. history at $8.5B.

As political dynamics shift and the climate crisis intensifies, the pressure is on to secure strong and fair rules to curb oil & gas pollution. Join this important talk with health & climate experts to learn what’s at stake and how to make it happen. 🗓️: https://t.co/lwYLaxo9NP

Foreboding words from a trusted source.

If @InsuranceBureau's Craig Stewart is saying we could be uninsurable in a decade, we should listen.

Canada has rolled out a National Adaptation Strategy, but is underinvesting on implementation.

Watch this space.

Laws that make polluters pay for climate disasters are taking off worldwide.

In California, I hope policymakers see the damage wrought by climate change, understand the role of oil and gas + proceed accordingly.

Check out this video from the amazing Dr. Mili Roy of Canadian Association of Physicians for the Environment (CAPE).

Despite the chaos in Ottawa, there's still time to pass urgently needed rules to curb pollution from oil and gas.

The Canada Carbon Rebate is one of those rare tools that help fight climate change while making the vast majority of Canadians better off.

Missing data, wrong numbers and erroneous claims haunt the Alberta Energy Regulator, which is supposed to hold industry to account.

If the AER is asleep at the wheel, what are the implications for the health of people across Alberta?

Imagine a world in which leaders beholden to fossil fuel interests tried to reignite an oil and gas boom ...

And the rest of the world economy had simply moved on.

We might not be too far off.

“The wildfires raging across Los Angeles are not just natural disasters – they are the direct result of human choices. And fossil fuel companies, with full knowledge of their actions’ consequences, must face the consequences of their greed.“
