The Ottawa-Alberta MoU is a backslide on methane goals.

That delay adds 1.9M tonnes of methane, roughly half the annual pollution created by the cars on Canada’s roads.

Alberta is already behind on methane — and now it has permission to fall further behind➡️ buff.ly/qriG0i3

A green buildings policy in Toronto would spur heat pump adoption across the city, making homes safer, healthier, and less polluting. If you're a Toronto resident, send an email to your council member telling them to vote in support of the policy at City Hall now! act.stand.earth/page/88238/data/1

It can feel hard to know how to talk with young people about the climate crisis, when we often have complicated emotions about it too. A little prep for these conversations can go a long way. Climate researcher and psychotherapist Laura Glover shares her advice on our blog: https://bit.ly/4oBxkvC

Meet Teresa from Vermillion, #Alberta.

Teresa’s story is but one of thousands from Alberta landowners living with the fallout of leaking oil and gas wells and a #regulator that won’t protect them.

There is ZERO chance a new pipeline doesn't contribute to #ClimateChange. Literally ZERO. That's not refutable. You have to outright ignore #Scope3 (the product's end use) let alone all that #CarbonCapture boondoggle nonsense.

#MarkCarney won't tell Canadians the truth.

Following Environment Minister Julie Dabrusin's refusal to say whether or not a new pipeline would contribute to climate change yesterday, that makes two major figures in Carney's government who have been unsure about the environmental impact of a new pipeline to export oil to be burned overseas.
