We Shouldn’t Pipeline Our Way out of Trump’s Crisis | The Tyee Why campaigning parties should instead be stressing green infrastructure, energy and transportation.

In the context of U.S. President Trump’s tariff war, it makes sense for Canada to reassess our energy needs. But it makes no sense to expand #OilAndGas infrastructure in the midst of growing worldwide climate chaos. 🛢

"This is a great opportunity to alienate the even the last remaining angry pensioners who still, for some reason, use our hellscape of a platform," a spokesperson did not say.

UK, Brazil and UAE unveil plans to cut greenhouse gas emissions Global warming may literally be keeping you awake at night.

Two things to remember:

1) We’ve made real progress on climate change.

2) Despite Trump, we’ll continue to make progress.

Severn Cullis-Suzuki: The Girl Who Silenced the World—and Never Stopped Speaking Up Thirty years after her famous UN speech, Cullis-Suzuki continues to advocate for intergenerational justice

In 1992, a 12-year-old silenced world leaders for 5 minutes. 30+ years later, Severn Cullis-Suzuki is still holding power to account. 🇨🇦 From that iconic UN speech to leading the David Suzuki Foundation, let me tell you how one fearless voice never stopped fighting for our planet's future. ⬇️ #Canada

The false dichotomy of systemic and individual behaviour change Individuals aren't going to solve climate change, but they are an important part of the system that will get us there.

A good essay on why we need both.

"...but certainly capable of slowing things down if we’re not willing to budge."

"Elbows up" is the ultimate battle cry, one that could only be born in Canada. Inspired by hockey legend Gordie Howe, aka "Mr. Elbows," who famously defended teammates with his elbows, this slogan is ingrained in Canadian DNA..

Ecological chicken farming? Still improves the land and gets rid of pests. Perhaps with rotation?

We have a lot of marginal land here in Canada, and people are quite interested in agrivotaics. You might find the new AgCanada app useful. I haven't tried it

No need to be rude, I am merely stating a relevant fact. Also, ruminants aren’t the only ones that graze. Geese and other fowl increase the viability of the land. Rotation of grazing and crops might work, and is worth considering
