It’s infuriating to me that I need to evaluate media to determine whether it’s AI generated now. The great “time saver” technology wastes incalculable time and energy for people who want to retain their grasp on reality

Mark Carney has had to 'step forward and backwards and it all sort of cancels out' headspace on climate for quite some time.
It's the logic of carbon offsetting: if you operate a coal plant, but you also build some renewable energy, the latter cancels out the former 🫠

I don’t know if anyone else notices or cares, but when I see a presentation in which the speaker uses obviously generated-AI images to illustrate their slides, it makes me immediately less confident in whatever other content they’re presenting.

This is the Douglas Channel where Danielle Smith expects massive oil tankers to navigate oil safely from Kitimat to markets in Asia.
This is also where even ferries run aground in shallow water and high windspeeds FFS.
This is why we have a BC moratorium on oil tanker traffic.

- exempts AB from net zero electricity reg (AB produces 44% of all electricity-related GHGs in Canada).
- delays methane reg by 5 years (75% redn by 2035 rather than 2030.
