Vancouver mayor plans to eliminate city's climate & sustainability dept. This would spell an end to the city's national leadership in urban climate policy.

What is so unreal to us living in the Portland area is how verifiable it is that Portland has not been burning for the last several years or now.

Some say his aids are feeding him this fake news. But there is something very wrong with him to accept it and continue saying stuff that is so false.

The voices of young people are clear: Youth unemployment isn’t just a statistic, it’s a crisis shaping their lives & futures.

A Youth Climate Corps could put thousands to work while supporting climate & community.

Making plans for #DrawTheLine this Saturday? March with us and @suebigoil.bsky.social! We're meeting at 2pm outside the VPL Central Branch (350 W Georgia St) and marching to Science World, where there will be music, dancing and speeches (including one from West Coast's Rayanna Seymour-Hourie)
Communities across the country are mobilizing on September 20th to demand that Prime Minister Carney and the Canadian government pick a side: injustice, violence, and climate destruction— or a just and safe future for all of us.

White Pine Beach, the floatwalk, and Sasamat Lake Loop Trail are now open but food is not permitted. This step is to discourage bears from approaching people and picnic tables. The rest of the park remains open but outdoor cooking is not permitted.
