Farmers in Kenya are using solarpower to improve crop yields. The panels help reduce heat stress, reduce water loss, grow larger crops and cut energy bills.

We have the solutions. Stop the delays. Implement them. #ActOnClimate

On the Facebook page for “Powdermill Nature Reserve”, they banded a bilateral gynandromorphic Rose-breasted Grosbeak.

Look at this beauty!

I'm trained in law.

There is no 'rule of law'. There are overlapping bodies of law. Laws are constantly changing. People with power ink laws. Resistance helps change unjust laws. Indigenous blockades are also legal orders.

UPDATE: ~45 vehicles, including three flatbeds with heavy machinery, seen heading to the 39km mark to begin clearing the road to 44km. They just passed 27km. It may be several hours before the RCMP are able to clear the road and get to the Gidimt’en checkpoint. #cdnpoli #bcpoli

This decision will haunt Trudeau government. This of us who knocked on doors for him will not forget that he took billions of dollars from Canadian families to buy out an oil pipeline that violates indigenous rights & our commitments in climate change. #cdnpoli #bcpoli #stopkm
