3,680 wildfire stories in Canadian media reporting. Only 170 mentioned climate change. Latest analysis from Re.Climate: reclimate.ca/what-canadas...

The problem with being a fan of speculative fiction is that sometimes when you order books delivered to your door, they break the linear forward time continuum to get there.

Selling off public assets to private corporations, and giving them massive tax breaks to do it.

Funny how a war or two and a greedy fossil fuel empowered despot in the White House seizing another country's oil industry can really supercharge the energy transition. Sad that my country, Canada, is betting the bank on guaranteed increased oil and gas demand. #energysky #greensky #gas #oil

Remember how upset the NFL was when Kaepernick took a knee? What goes around comes around. Thanks Colin for being brave.

I've heard thousands of climate denial arguments over the last few decades. But do you know they all fall into one of 5 categories? 1. It's not real 2. It's not us 3. It's not bad 4. We can't fix it 5. You can't trust the info/experts Source: www.nature.com/articles/s41...

My prediction: Tech Broligarchs are going to threaten to build AI data centers in the global south because of all the resistance in so-called developed countries. It’ll be a new invigoration of old colonialism. #datacentres #ai

Huge investigation out today helmed by @rebleber.bsky.social and @rebeccajohn.bsky.social revealing just how long ago industry knew gas would destroy the climate -- with tons of new details showing how they hid the facts and worked to promote gas as "clean." 👏👏

🚨NEW from me: leading climate scientist @rahmstorf.bsky.social tells me of his anger after witnessing firsthand the devastating Gironde wildfires - which he ties directly to politicians' inaction on fossil fuels.

“This is like crashing into the car in front of you because you were speeding and tailgating, and then demanding they pay for the damage to your headlights,” said Michael Mann… www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

Carbon Carnivore Carney isn't going to let nature get in the way of locking Canada into petrostatehood while the rest of the world moves on from fossil fuels. As Canada burns again, tell him to put nature ahead of fossil fuels. act.greenpeace.ca/en-ca/nature... Via @greenpeaceca.bsky.social

Thou shalt not blame Canada for wildfires caused by climate change you’ve spent your whole life denying and intensifying through your own greed and stupidity.

Here's a fun little coincidence I noticed: Every Republican Congressmember loudly blaming Canada's forest management policies for this year's unprecedented wildfires (and ignoring climate change) is a massive recipient of fossil fuel funding. Receipts👇

Most people—even many Republican voters!—understand that climate change is worsening wildfires. And yet, we cannot do anything about it, because fossil fuel money is choking both Republican and Democratic politicians, preventing them from even having a *conversation* about solutions.

Chances are you've heard that methane leaks make natural gas worse for the climate than we've been led to believe. And yet many of us still think of gas as the "clean" fossil fuel. That didn't happen by accident.

Got upset and made this so hopefully people will actually listen. What the fuck are we doing here folks?

Reminder that Carney has cut funding for Natural Resources Canada, Environment and Climate Change Canada, Indigenous and Northern Affairs, and Indigenous Services. And he has rolled back climate protections, abandoned emissions targets, and is building more pipelines.

Wildfire haze in Ottawa makes it unclear if Carney announced new pipeline Ottawa -- Reporters on the The Hill were not able to confirm whether it was the Prime Minster who announced a new bitumen pipeline, or someone else, due to the reduced visibility caused by wildfire smoke. @thebeaverton.com

Can we go back to fentanyl being the problem you created that we’re sending into your country? That narrative was at least more self-aware than whatever this is.

Carney is the most regressive PM I have seen in my lifetime. www.cbc.ca/news/politic...

Honest to god, from a screenwriter, it’s because there’s one single unmistakable visual element that goes with it.

Carney -- and his enabler MPs and complicit defenders -- are on the wrong side once again. www.cbc.ca/news/politic...

There's nothing I like seeing more than a post by an environmental advocacy group which says: "See you in court [insert regressive climatic and/or environmental runaway capitalist here]"

How badly is Prime Minister Mark Carney misstepping on the environment and the climate? Badly enough, the leaders of 16 of Canada's largest environmental and climate advocacy groups went to Parliament Hill to call him out. Here's what they said:

It pains me to say it, because for years I respected so much of what he had to say. But Ezra Klein is no friend to global climate action. His "Abundance" framing is just polluter-friendly Cornucopianism in new clothing.
