So some folks say we should spend less on trying to stop climate change and instead build bigger pipes and culverts. Do you think that will work when we are getting 2 record storms with over 110 mm of rain a month apart? #cdnpoli #ClimateActionNow

I sometimes get asked why Environmental Defence has a "Climate Villains" campaign. Here is a good answer: Why vilify the oil and gas industry? by Emily Atkin heated.world/p/why-vilify-t… #cdnpoli #ClimateCrisis

The inefficiency of this approach makes no sense. Sure make ammonia with wind...after 100% of coal generation has been shut down and replaced with wind, solar and batteries. #cdnpoli #EnergyTransition

This. Housing is mostly a provincial responsibility and Doug Ford gaslights us all by saying that wrecking wetlands and farms 140 km from cities is going to build affordable housing, all while refusing to mandate home building in places people could afford to live in. #onpoli

Pure gaslighting from @Fordnation as they try to bury their own study that shows the 413 will do nothing for traffic. Put the trucks from the 401 on the 407 now, reduce gridlock and save us $billions. toronto.citynews.ca/2024/08/23/rep… #stopthe413 #onpoli
