The Canadian Government has made a new tourism ad, and it’s surprisingly honest and informative! 🇨🇦
So I did a thing…
I'm jumping into a new chapter of endless possibilities:

Did you know that reducing heat-trapping gas emissions doesn't just slow climate change: it also improves our health; saves food, water, and money; and keeps us safer?
Climate solutions aren't a necessary evil: they're a 'no regrets' strategy for a better world.

Here are the big takeaways from the @IPCC_CH Synthesis Report released today.
First, climate change has already caused widespread and substantial losses to almost every aspect of human life on this planet, and the impacts on future generations depend on the choices we make NOW.

My sustainability class just finished a module about disinformation. I had them write me a letter assuming they were flunking and arguing that they deserve an A, using the techniques of disinformation we discussed, like cherry picking, false experts and ad hominem. HOO-boy. 1/n

I see a lot of people say things like "Our grid can't handle more EVs or heat pumps."
Imagine if 100 years ago, people were like "Light bulbs, dishwashers, etc. are all great, but we don't have enough electric capacity."
We can electrify everything *and* build more capacity.
