#Coal dust from mines operating in Elk Valley, BC is polluting communities and ecosystems downwind in AB’s #EasternSlopes with toxic contaminants in concentrations comparable to the #oilsands and well exceeding environmental guidelines #ABPoli #AbLeg pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac…

🥳 A big week for #electricity in #Alberta! AB’s last coal plant officially repowered and the prov.’s grid has now been operating #CoalZero for over 72 hours. This is likely the longest “coal free hours” in 150 years. 🙌 Here’s why we’re celebrating 👇 pembina.org/media-release/…

A limited Grizzly bear hunt has returned to Alberta. Let's be clear - this is a threatened species, and introducing a hunt is not going to reduce human-wildlife conflict.

Ministerial Order 43/2024: "The Minister may issue a grizzly bear management authorization for the purposes of hunting a grizzly bear..." GoA News Release: "This is not a bear hunt" Make it make sense, Alberta Government #SaveABGrizzlies

John E Marriott Photography Ryan Jespersen Real Talk Ryan Jespersen Looking forward to this! Also, here's my response as a bear biologist and NDP Critic of Environment and Tourism. I've been working on grizzly bear recovery in Alberta for over 15 years - this move is ridiculous. (I also make a great panelist with John E Marriott Photography ... just saying).

Let Minister Loewen know your thoughts about allowing members of the public to shoot grizzly bears (which he insists is not a hunt). AWA has set up a letter-writing template here: albertawilderness.ca/__trashed-2/

It was so nice to be a part of this show with Ryan Jespersen on Real Talk. The whole show was a great discussion on what's at stake with these new regulations, how they won't work, and how they go against the current Alberta grizzly bear recovery plan.

Canada: We’re going to plant a bunch of trees to combat climate change. Also Canada: Allows the logging industry to continue its expansion into intact forests, while failing to account for accumulated forest degradation. 🤨🙄😑 ow.ly/bkfH50SBMCp #StateOfTheForest

Grizzly bear biologists are calling out the Minister on his grizzly bear population and euthanasia numbers. Please write to Minister Loewen ([email protected]) and your MLA if you haven't already! #SaveABGrizzlies rmoutlook.com/kananaskis-cou…

Canada fails to include roads and logging scars in its deforestation tally, enabling it to report near-zero deforestation year after year.🤯Conservationists make the case on the importance of forest quality over quantity: ow.ly/P9P050SBNJy #StateOfTheForest #Biodiversity

7000 hunters applied for the chance to kill Alberta grizzlies. Meanwhile, basically every authority on earth disagrees with the province on this (including AB's own provincial biologists and F&W officers). cbc.ca/news/canada/ca…
