Thanks to Lisa Slakov from @leadnowca and Hannah MacDonald from @forourkids_vyr @ForOurKidsCAN for meeting with me today to discuss how to about reduce ghg emission faster. Policy should follow science.

@JeffTurnerEVs @TravisJAllan @GreenMuniFund @LC3Canada Thanks for the kind words, Jeff! And that’s how the revolution starts, right, one hippocampus at a time?

[Andrea Reimer (she/her) @andreareimer]

I promised some preliminary post-election thoughts so here they are. First off, a big thank you to all the candidates, their families, campaign workers & volunteers, election staff and media. Elections are exhausting but your collective work is the energy that fuels democracy

A Heat Dome, the 3rd worst wildfire season, a bomb cyclone and a destructive Pineapple Express in less than five months.

We know this isn’t a coincidence, right BC?

And we know that pipelines, fossil fuel subsidies and old-growth logging are investments in making this worse?

I’m just a City Councillor,

Sitting in a virtual meeting,

Asking my colleagues who vote down climate policy to constructively propose alternatives within our jurisdiction that align with the science, rather than simply defending the status quo.

@MURALSupport hello! I sent a customer service chat request two days ago and haven’t gotten a response. Your response time indicates hours - when will I get support?

Over the weekend, B.C. passed 500,000 hectares burned this wildfire season.

It's the third time in five years we've passed the half million mark.

Prior to 2017, it had happened once in the province's recorded history.

[Justin McElroy @j_mcelroy]

A small town in B.C. has the hottest recorded temperature in Canadian history one day, then eclipses that record the very next day, then eclipses it again for a 3rd straight day, and on the 4th day it has a catastrophic fire.

It's terrifying.

For Canada, reaching #NetZero is achievable and could be advantageous. Strong policy and strategic choices can get us there. Find out more in our detailed scenario report: Canada’s Net Zero Future. #cdnpoli https://t.co/qqpRiIWRUe

A powerful scene in the @CBRMGov Mayoral office!

Vancouver council has unanimously passed a motion asking the federal government for a health exemption that would decriminalize simple possession of drugs in the city

Amazing news!

Clearwater to be sold for $1-b to partnership of Mi’kmaq communities and BC-based Premium Brands. Directors recommend deal which would pay shareholders $8.25 per share. Membertou chief says “a fully Mi’kmaq owned partnership “ say would hold Clearwater’s CDN fishing licenses.

My favourite 'new' source for climate change journalism. If you're curious why - read the one year review and you will want to subscribe, too!

If you're looking for a new place to get climate change news and analysis, I just published a summary of the first year of my newsletter, HEATED. We approach climate change as a corruption and justice story. You can learn more (and sign up for free) here: https://t.co/cDdmglJQTj

It's still stunning

[Barack Obama @BarackObama]

I wrote out some thoughts on how to make this moment a real turning point to bring about real change––and pulled together some resources to help young activists sustain the momentum by channeling their energy into concrete action. https://t.co/jEczrOeFdv

[Merran Smith @merransmith]

Canadians clearly see that we have a once-in-a-generation opportunity to rebuild a better Canada. Our recovery measures must be resilient. Our future economy must be sustainable. Gone are the days of pitting climate against the economy. https://t.co/xdT54KttlP #cdnpoli

Who are the "Coast Salish"?

Here’s a thread.

I just increased my monthly support for @CANADALAND at https://t.co/9o5BYZqKbo because Canada needs independent media! And I would love to hear the new season of Thunder Bay. #cdnmedia

“Today, the share of low-carbon investment represents only one-third of total energy investment, with the remaining two-thirds going to other fuels. To meet our sustainable and climate goals, we need this proportion to reverse.” #CEMMI2019 https://t.co/VLFzFAjjiU
