BREAKING: Today, the Canada Pension Plan Investment Board (CPPIB), which manages over $714 billion of Canadians’ retirement savings, quietly abandoned its commitment to net-zero by 2050. This is a shocking failure of responsibility from one of the world’s largest public investors.

Those trying to understand the tariffs as economic policy are dangerously naive.
No, the tariffs are a tool to collapse our democracy. A means to compel loyalty from every business that will need to petition Trump for relief.

Tips to keep democracy alive in 2025:
1. Be Brave. Avoid helpless/hopeless talk. Authoritarians want you to feel powerless because it makes their work easier. Courage, faith, and optimism are essential. Fascism feeds on cynicism and pessimism. Starve it.

Let’s clear up the myth that masks don’t work. The Cochrane study often used to question mask effectiveness has design flaws and is easily misunderstood. In reality, multi-layered masks like N95s and KN95s are still highly effective at reducing the spread of airborne diseases.

“The survey revealed that traders who drive to their business estimated much higher customer car use (29%) than traders that use other modes of transport (between 10% and 19%).”
The actual car use was 7%.
Yet another survey showing again that retailers constantly overestimate customer car-use.

“It's amazing how pollution has dropped in #Paris in 15 years. @annehidalgo.bsky.social has filled the city with bike-lanes & not only has she reduced pollution by 40% but she’s also been re-elected.”
Trading car space for green space, bike space, kid space…trading pollution for people. Good trade.

Es alucinante cómo ha bajado la contaminación en París en 15 años. Anne Hidalgo lo ha llenado todo de carriles bici y no sólo ha reducido la contaminación en un 40%, sino que ha sido reelegida.
