#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.

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.🧵

My latest newsletter post is now up—it's about how to message a campaign for a legislative ban on gas stoves.

2⃣ If you are in a non-Liberal riding, email Minister @s_guilbeault and Prime Minister @JustinTrudeau directly: leadnow.ca/campaigns/emcap-r…
We have momentum on our side, and there is no time for delays! #EmissionsCap 6/6

Most people don’t know this.
Heat pumps REDUCE gas consumption even if running 100% on electricity from a gas fired power plant.

Across BC, AB and SK, #Methane from oil and gas flares, vents, and leaks into the air - often within 1km of schools and daycares.
Tell @s_guilbeault, @markhollandlib, and your local MP to protect what we love and take action on methane pollution!

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.

Have a GREAT Sunday! #yyc #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

Electrification of transportation.
Madison, Wisconsin, adds two battery-electric garbage trucks to its fleet of 62 battery-electric buses and 100 other battery-electric city vehicles.

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.

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

Well said, @dbinyyc. Our aging infrastructure is not a reason to stop (smart) growth. Quite the opposite. #yyccc

ICYMI: I wrote a bit about how we need to grow sustainably, instead of hitting pause on growth. Infrastructure investments in established communities are absolutely critical, but growth in these areas actually helps to address these issues, not exacerbate. #yyccc

Alberta has a Plan A: all in on oil and gas.
If that doesn't work, is there a Plan B?
Nope.
Well, some vague hand waving about "making stuff out of it."
That's not a plan.
