[Catherine McKenna @cathmckenna]

Our problem is that we are addicted to fossil fuels. And we learn the wrong lessons. We focus on short-term opportunism rather than long-term sustainability. Hard to tell developing countries to move to clean energy when rich countries like Canada won't do the same.

[Dr Courtney Howard @courtghoward]

What are the chances that #Budget2022 would be the same day as #WorldHealthDay2022, which is the day that 38 🇨🇦health orgs issued an open letter to @CanadianPM calling for a shift to wellbeing economy metrics?
I choose to see this as an excellent omen 🤓

What do @ShakeUpTheEstab, @PeelClimate, Stop Ecocide Canada, Let's Sprout and @TOforFuture have in common? They were all founded by a 2020 Top 25 winner!

@BCHistoryFed Libraries, hubs of our communities and so much more than books

We have to get beyond ideological tribalism and adopt solutions that work. So long as we're subsidising fossil fuels we're going to find it very difficult to get off them.

[Bill McKibben @billmckibben]

Apparently we all just experienced the hottest October ever recorded on this planet. And against that backdrop of fire and flood, our ruling class set out to sabotage the Paris climate accords

[Catherine McKenna @cathmckenna]

President Trump’s announcement that the US will walk away from the Paris Agreement is disappointing. However, no one country can stop the global momentum to a cleaner future. Canada looks forward to working with the rest of the world under the Paris Agreement including at #COP25.

[Dalai Lama @DalaiLama]

What’s truly of value in life? what gives our lives meaning? We weren't born to cause trouble or harm. To be of value, we must develop basic good human qualities---warmth, kindness, compassion. Then our life will become happier and more meaningful.

[Prof. Katharine Hayhoe @KHayhoe]

Climate Change:

It's real.

It's us.

It's serious - and becoming dangerous.

But there are solutions, and there is hope.

The science is clear: the faster we reduce our emissions, the less impacts there will be.

[Greta Thunberg @GretaThunberg]

When we say we strike on all continents - we mean ALL continents. This is Antarctica. #FridaysForFuture #ClimateStrike

[Bill McKibben @billmckibben]

So good to see two of my heroes @kuminaidoo and @GretaThunberg at big @amnesty International gathering in DC
All the forces are gathering now

[Anni Holtby @holtbyam]

@leadnowca Important to note

[Anni Holtby @holtbyam]

@KHayhoe Congratulations! Thanks for all your inspiration!

[Catherine McKenna @cathmckenna]

The science is absolutely clear, which makes it so baffling that today's Conservative politicians want to do less, not more. Climate change is a real and urgent threat. We're a great country and we can figure this out, but the only way to do that is to come together.
