If you’re convinced we’re doomed + there’s nothing anyone can do about climate:
❌ Stop doom-scrolling & get off social media
😳 Don’t attack or hinder others doing their best to help
🐾 Adopt a pet in need of a home
🌳 Spend as much time as you can in nature
❤️ Focus on love

I don’t know who needs to hear this, but we’re still in a pandemic.
It’s ok if you’re not yet comfortable in crowds.
It’s ok if you say no to things.
It’s ok if you feel anxious.
It’s ok if you need to rest.
Your feelings are valid. And don’t let anyone convince you otherwise.
“A true vocation calls us out beyond ourselves; breaks our heart in the process and then humbles, simplifies and enlightens us about the hidden, core nature of the work that enticed us in the first place.”
― David Whyte

BC government still taking money for new leases to explore and drill for oil and gas (fracking) in the Northeast. In May, BC took in $3.8 million for access to 5700 hectares of land. This is not climate action.

In times like this, it's worth thinking about how our city is designed
- why can't I freaking sit down anywhere
- in the shade
- where are the public washrooms
- where can I get water if I'm thirsty
- without paying
- why do I have to breathe car exhaust everywhere
Our hospitals are stretched, our health-care workers exhausted. They are taking care of our friends and loved-ones and we need to take care of them through our actions, so they can continue to do their jobs for us.
