Tweets by Roger Gagne, in the Petro-State of Alberta. Founder of Climate Plan Alberta. My old hobby was advocating for a price on pollution via carbon tax. Because of both climate crisis and the accelerating energy transition, we've got to get off fossils.

Here in Calgary yesterday afternoon - November 6th - I saw a mosquito. Also, a man out in shorts, and another working outside in a T-shirt.
Donald, meanwhile, says climate change is a hoax. Right, Don.
16 hours later with my morning coffee, I look out to this.
