#Breaking—up to 66% of future investments in Canadian oil & gas could become unprofitable as global demand falls. Restricting oil and gas production can help prevent stranded assets & protect gov't revenues. @IISD_Energy 🔗iisd.org/publications/report… #cdnpoli

The F28 is a new doorfiets (“continuous cycling”) route connecting the centres of Utrecht and Amersfoort. At 23 km., it offers commuters, students, and recreational cyclists a high-quality, nearly non-stop experience between the two cities, passing through five municipalities.🧵

Most people don’t know this. Heat pumps REDUCE gas consumption even if running 100% on electricity from a gas fired power plant. More here in my piece for @CarbonBrief 👇 carbonbrief.org/factcheck-18…

"We know that realistically #ClimateChange will have an inflationary impact over time. Food is going to be more expensive if crops fail more often and I think at some point politicians are going to have to start talking about the #CostOfClimate." #Election2024 #Climate
No other country impacts Canada the way America does, especially when they vote in a new president. We asked @UCalgary #PoliticalScience prof & "#WhatNow?!? An Alberta Politics Newsletter" creator Dr @JLisaYoung what #Election2024 means for us podcastics.com/episode/32043… #abpoli

Valencia's Palau de la Generalitat now stands defaced, its main entrance caked in mud and smeared with countless handprints. A visceral display of fury against the government’s response to the recent floods.

In 10 years we built some #greenlineyyc enabling works to maybe potentially have a train underground that will no longer be underground...so take that. #yyc #yyccc #ableg
The Hangzhou Metro opened 13 years ago, today the system is 625km long, 15 lines and over 300 stations.

In #yyc solar benefits already outweighs the costs. 1st yr, I'm getting a 70% return on my @SkyFireEnergy array. It's sizeable bc I started with 50+% reduction in energy needs by adding insulation, then ↑heating efficiency via heat pump. No gas to house! @ClimateHubYYC #yyccc
Solar is set to overtake generation capacity of all other power sources by 2027. In three years, it will overtake gas. In four years, it will push past coal. And it's creating jobs as it does it. We have the solutions. Implement them. #ActOnClimate #climate #energy #renewables
