My very first research paper is out! Published in Elementa: Science of the Anthropocene. We look at strategies that facilitate climate adaptation in Indigenous communities I’m very grateful to my supervisors and especially to the community members that collaborated in this project 👇

Our report for David Suzuki Foundation on the contribution cities can make to GHG reduction. For some things, like ZEVs, do need collaboration with senior levels of government. davidsuzuki.org/science-learni…

The differences in impacts between 2 and 3 degrees of global warming are just shocking. This is the time to act.

The latest research from Jonn Axsen looks at the evidence for how road pricing can be used for effective GHG reduction: it can be effective in the short & long term, but careful implementation will improve equity & acceptability, doi.org/10.1016/j.enpo…

PhD students Viviane H Gauer and Zoe Long will be presenting at this free, online event on September 22 at 12pm PST. Come learn about START's research and why #EVs are sustainable solutions. eventbrite.ca/e/how-sustaina…

REM's Jonn Axsen has been named a member of the Royal Society of Canada (RSC) for his extensive work in sustainable transportation. Membership in the RSC is Canada’s highest academic honour. Congratulations! ow.ly/awPF50G6r6o RSC // SRC #SFUResearch #rscBRAVOsrc

Where does Canada stand on net-zero targets and what actions are needed to get there? Tom Gunton lays it out in this brief piece:

Novel research from SFU_START explores the link between consumer engagement with aspects of automobility and consumer interest in shared, automated, and electric mobility. The paper - my first PhD study - was recently published in TRD: doi.org/10.1016/j.trd.…

The rising share of SUVs worsens the climate and safety issues we already face in our transport system. Why are SUVs such a trend, and what can be done about it? Check out this piece by researchers from SFU_START: theconversation.com/the-rising-can… via The Conversation Canada

Flood X with our flag Canada. Absolutely flood it in protest to Trump.

Climate change is fueling devastating wildfires burning across Manitoba, Saskatchewan and Alberta through intensified heat, drought and atmospheric conditions. 🧵⬇️ cbc.ca/news/canada/sa…

There are many ways a wildfire can start, but it’s climate change that’s driving the conditions for them to grow bigger, faster, and more dangerous. A spark alone won’t start a firestorm—but in a tinder-dry forest, it can ⬇️ vancouversun.com/opinion/op-ed/…

Climate change is supercharging wildfires, and we are seeing yet another destructive wildfire season threaten communities across Canada 🔥 My colleague Zach Carriere and I outline five key actions govs can take to reduce wildfire risk in this article 👇

Why we urgently need a climate policy reset at both the federal and provincial/territorial levels 👇 Canada is off track, but every megatonne of emissions reduced counts
