"It should be obvious by now that fossil fuel companies have no real plans to change in response to the climate crisis. And that the only way forward is without them." - LA Times Editorial Board

So @Shell abandons their climate targets & net zero goals this week & announces they will expand fossil fuel production & Canada (while our country is on 🔥) hosts their international board meeting & tours them as a “reliable partner in building a “green economy”?! 🤦‍♀️

[Rosa Galvez @SenRosaGalvez]

Shell and Green economy in the same phrase? There is something wrong in the GHGe math of this statement. Like when O&G say they adhere to NZ2050 without saying is only for their scope 1 emissions :-( .

Le gouvernement Trudeau et celui de Terre-Neuve autorisent le premier forage pétrolier dans un «refuge marin» de la côte est censé protéger la biodiversité. La compagnie BP, responsable de la marée noire du golfe du Mexique, pilote ce projet. https://t.co/tL1RdPhEmD #polcan

Every policymaker in Canada who is being lobbied by the oil & gas sector to pay out still more public 💰 for CCS should listen to the first 15 minutes of this interview with June Sekera, policy researcher with @IIPP_UCL. https://t.co/PwpkocfUsE

[Julia Levin @lev_jf]

New investigation by @ottawacarl & @thenarwhalca finds that 30 Canadian policy-makers have $$ invested in oil & gas companies -- including Minister Wilkinson's spouse who has invested in Shell & Enbridge

Though this doesn't violate rules, there is a clear conflict of interest.

REVEALED: Top oil industry group paid Google to link its site to the search term 'environment and climate change canada.'

So when people Googled the federal department that makes climate policy, they got served pro-oil messages.

Anti-trans and anti drag protests next to my house in Vancouver. A lot of conspiracy theories too… Really disturbing.

I delivered this poem at the 11th hour of the conference of parties. Loss and damage means unbelievable loss. We can not come back from the loss of culture. There will come a time when no amount of dollars will be able to bring back what we’ve lost and broken.
