We see you, Canada! 🇨🇦

At #COP30, @cape-acme.bsky.social is pushing to stop greenwashing and advance domestic climate action.

Canada should be making great strides at COP, but Carney spent part of yesterday pushing LNG expansion.

Let’s do better.

Peaceful sit-in by the Munduruku this morning in front of COP. They are demanding stopping of extractive activities in their territories including mining, logging, oil drilling, agrobusiness and a railway. They are asking for a meeting with Lula. They are doing the real work ❤️ #healthprotectors

Canada announcing they have signed on to the Global Initiative for Information Integrity on Climate Change!! @cape-acme.bsky.social doctors helped make that happen.

Interesting greenwashing mapping from @ketanjoshi: infeasibility & lengthiness on x axis v. cost on the y. DAC, CCS and modular nuclear are all in the sweet spot.
The perfect greenwashing tool

- Actually exists somewhere else
- Expensive enough to justify a shitload of subsidies
- Lengthy enough in timeline to always be 'around the corner' perpetually

Even worse —- the same executive, Ana Julião, manages comms for both COP30 and Shell!!! This is supposed to be the COP of truth —- where is the integrity?
➡️ Edelman is Shell’s agency of record while leading communications for the UN climate talks. The same firm is shaping messages about solving the climate crisis.
🚨You can’t serve the public good and the polluter playbook at the same time.

« Europe faces an existential choice: build genuine technological sovereignty now, or accept governance by platforms whose architects view democracy as an obsolete operating system. » & Canada?
Tech oligarchs who explicitly reject democracy are building and controlling the digital infrastructure for the administrative state. The concentration of power is unprecedented.

Spotted in London, badvertising’s brilliant ad campaign to end pollution promotion. 😍
Brilliant new ad campaign I just spotted at the Southwark tube station in London.

Need a break from the massive crowds at #COP29?
Swing by the CRIN(ge) Pavilion (aka Canadian Oil and Gas Pavilion).

Always space to hang out.
