an "integrity issue" that will take 3 years to fix has resulted in LNG Canada burning 15 times as much gas as expected and has had a "noticeable impact on the community" — but no penalties yet from the energy regulator. killer investigation by @laurenwatsonjourno.bsky.social & @writermjs.bsky.social
LNG Canada has known there was an issue with its flaring equipment for over a year. While locals raised concerns about noise, smoke and emissions, until now, they didn’t have answers. The Narwhal reviewed more than 2,000 pages of documents for this story: thenarwhal.ca/lng-canada-f... #bcpoli

As I say here, this is not about saving the planet. The planet will be orbiting the sun long after we’re gone.

The question is, will there be a healthy, thriving human society on that planet? The answer to that question is very much up for grabs at this point.

Toronto City Council has gotten cold feet on a green policy for existing buildings that's been in the works for two years..

We have just a few days to turn things around.

Please send a message to bring this key climate policy back!
There's a big hole in Toronto's Climate Plan.

A policy that would tackle the biggest source of pollution and make our homes safer is at risk of being shelved this week 😨

We can prevent that from happening by speaking up right now!
