I did like how in the past the weather was predictable, agriculture was steady and the country didn't burn down every summer.

Every single big oil expansion and fossil fuel project will kill more of your future kin.
That's on you @mark-carney.bsky.social

Climate chaos doesn't make deals.

This is on us, Canada. We're the baddies. Until we say no to oil.

Bad deal, bad plan, economic dead end for a province that desperately needs diversification, not continued Dutch Disease.

We've fallen into an anti-immigration, anti-climate, short-sighted economic doofus era, brought to you by the guy who we thought was a smart policy wonk.

From Manitoba campaigner @ericreder.bsky.social in today's Winnipeg Free Press: A 50-year arc of increasing care for nature is in a steep descent as we are forced to consider proposals to contaminate aquifers for private profiteers.

It's weird to not only have lived through an information revolution but also now living through its undoing, all within less than a generation.
Google at its peak was basically the best information retrieval system in human history and they and every competitor decided going from there to “you didn’t want answers you wanted half-assed auto-complete 80%-wrong hallucinations” in a few years was the right idea

Bottom line is if you never ever sit down and organize your idea and make a clear business plan - with your hand, write it down - you're literally never going to do the thing.

You can't wing it. You have to map it out and you have to KNOW it inside out.
K-I-S-S Your Business Plan
Your business statement should be 15 words or less, and so clear a 4th grader could understand it.

I saw Thomas King finally admitted he’s not Native. We were going to do a story on him for the old podcast - he was cited in a court case, his books used in schools - so it mattered. But also it would just be so ugly. This is the best way for him to do it.

It’s really hard to defend industry academic collaborations with meta as earnest, if they’re internally burying evidence of harm.

COP30 overpromised, underdelivered, empowered distractions, backtracked on issues and once again gave big oil and big ag a free pass.

Unfortunately, the suspicions of climate scientists (here in Brazil and abroad) were confirmed again.

As I argue in The Language of Climate Politics: we are stuck not because climate politics are polarized, but because they’re UNIFIED (across the right and center-left) on the lie that we can keep using oil and gas but still deal with climate change anyway.

Here’s a good example of that discourse.
European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen said today that the fight against climate change was not against the fuels that cause it — only the pollution they emit.
Von der Leyen says EU is not fighting fossil fuels, only emissions
The comment could undermine European countries’ push at COP30 to move away from coal, oil and gas.

Federal "permitting reform" (e.g., The SPEED Act, HR 4776) is the Billionaire's version of climate action.

People, land and water, wildlife are little but: (1) Commodities for extraction; or (2) Barriers to wealth and power accumulation.

It's a giant grift.
ICYMI: The GOP is trying to pass Permitting Reform legislation that would gut protections for Tribes and communities to oppose strip mining and oil and gas drilling.

These lands have been protected by Tribal treaty rights since the 19th Century. How is this America First?
