Yesterday was the first day CO₂ at Mauna Loa was 425 ppm. This is: -likely the first time in the past 800,000 years. -possibly not seen in over 3 million years (mid-pliocene warm period). -A CO₂ forcing equal to 2.5-4°C of warming and 5-25 meters higher global sea level.

Today, Doug Ford again refused to acknowledge the link between the climate crisis and raging wildfires. We need a gov't that acts to mitigate climate change. One that isn't paving over our Greenbelt—a massive carbon sink. This isn't normal. We can do so much better. #onpoli

As we breathe smoke from climate change-worsened fires, consider that Doug Ford and Ontario Place for Everyone will: -bulldoze parkland and 850 mature trees -build a giant indoor energy sink of a spa -needlessly replace rather than repair the Science Centre -spend $500M public $ on parking

It’s time to fight. Time for a hearts & minds campaign. Time for political theatre, protest & tree hugging. It’s time for Mayor Chow to stay true to her campaign promise & lead a Toronto 💪🏼fight to save Ontario Place. Ford is weak. My Toronto Star clmn. thestar.com/opinion/star-c…

This is very simple to fix. Automatic number-plate recognition (ANPR). It has existed for over 20 years. It is used to enforce the Congestion Charge in London, UK. It is used on the 407 in Ontario. Congestion in the core of the city is a new level of madness. The efficiency

Study summary: • Drivers make ~6,800 illegal turns or straight-through's *per day* on King Street Transit Priority Corridor • less than 0.3% are ticketed for it • 99.7% of drivers are not being fined for breaking the law on the King Street Transit Priority Corridor #TOpoli

Did you know that the City of Toronto is aiming for 75% of trips under 5 km to be taken on foot, transit or bike by 2030? It’s an ambitious target, and if we maintain the status quo, it will not be met. 1/
