@FortisBC We were also excited to connect with local leaders at #UBCM23 last week. We heard a request from many for clear, unbiased information about how to meet B.C.’s climate targets by decarbonizing buildings, so we obliged with our own open letter. #ActOnClimate https://t.co/IKieVtTNg9

It's a monumental moment for the world's ocean! Adopting the #BBNJ text is a significant step forward in the protection & sustainable use of biodiversity on the #HighSeas. As an ocean aficionado, I am confident this marks a turning point in how we approach ocean governance. #IGC5
