‘This year is set to be one of the hottest on record, but it’s still likely to be one of the coolest years we will experience during our lifetimes.’
Ever feel like you're the only one who cares that the planet is collapsing around us? 🤯 It's barely in the news. Friends & family don't bring it up.
But recent polling shows: you're not alone! 🤝🏼 Let's normalize talking about it. Silence begets silence.

I was glad to join CBC radio's On The Coast today to talk about the German purchase agreement for Ksi Lisims LNG (quick take: there is less here than the government is making out), as well as Carney's climate record and the departure of Steven Guilbeault. Have a listen: www.cbc.ca/listen/live-...
Remember the deadly #heatwave that hit BC in June 2021, almost five years ago? Because of fossil fuel loving politicians, our planet has become even hotter and more dangerous. Your friends and family care, talk to them. www.theguardian.com/environment/... #yyj #bcpoli #cdnpoli #LaterIsTooLate
And let your MLA know that you care. We keep hearing that constituents are no longer reaching out to discuss climate concerns.
Write to your MLA today: myseatosky.org/take-action/...
So, the Globe is clarifying that the German SEFE purchase agreement to be announced tomorrow will be for only one million tonnes of LNG a year, meaning half as much as Shell and Total are committed to buying from the proposed Ksi Lisims LNG facility...🧵

It seems like almost everyone is moving away from fossil fuels... with Canada being an embarrassing exception.

BC Parks are being battered by extreme weather, caused by burning fossil fuels like fracked gas (LNG). So why is BC Premier David Eby subsidizing the extraction of more gas and making the #climatecrisis worse?

A first for me today. Glad to have this piece in The Guardian. Figured it was time more of our international friends heard some hard truths about how things are going here in 🇨🇦:

Remember the crazy June heat dome that killed about 600 people in BC five years ago? A similar heat dome is killing right now in Europe.
Why is this happening so often? Fossil fuels, like the fracked gas BC exports as #LNG, are the main cause.

French solar power surged on Thursday as a stretch of sunny weather boosted generation allowing the country to export huge volumes of electricity to neighboring markets.
Temperature records are being broken across Europe as parts of the continent swelter under a heat dome that is bringing extreme temperatures alarmingly early in the year.

While Canada may be clinging to fossil fuels, much of the world is moving on
