Renewable energy met all new demand for electricity in 2025, according to a new review of global power generation, halting the growth of fossil fuel-powered generation and highlighting the promise of clean sources like wind and solar.
Sadly, 🇨🇦 missed the memo...

Not all cries for help are loud.
There’s a silent signal everyone should know.
Thumb tucked. Fingers folded.
It means “I need help”

These irreplaceable old growth forests continue to be logged across British Columbia. Over 1,200 people have been arrested trying to keep them standing.
There is no time to waste. Protect the Irreplaceable.

Not yet, huh? This is taking way too long.
A starfield filled with thousands of stars and shining clouds of dust. The Milky Way\u2019s elegant spiral structure is dominated by just two arms wrapping off the ends of a central bar of stars. Spanning more than 100,000 light-years, Earth is located along one of the galaxy\u2019s spiral arms, about halfway from the center. Credit: NASA
OH. MY. GOD.
THIS IS THE MILKY WAY SHOT BY THE ARTEMIS II CREW. LOOK AT ALL THOSE STARS!!!!
I suppose, but I would bet that if you weigh the current success rate benefits vs. costs, it would still be worthwhile, and now there is data available to make more informed decisions and improve success rates.
Does that mean 60%, more than half, have not?
I want to repost this in case any US healthcare professionals have missed it. British Columbia Canada is still hiring hundreds of US healthcare professionals.
Come join us, escape the chaos in the USA.

Two pictures of the pillsbury dough boy: once is on a purple background with the caption “he is risen! happy Easter!”, and the other is tan and brown, similar to a cracker, on a white background saying “he is not! Happy Passover!”
It’s time to post one of my favorite memes of the year.
Alberta government doesn't think an impact assessment is needed for Kevin O'Leary's monster data centre even though it will use about 24 million cubic meters of water annually — roughly 460,000 people's lifetime consumption. www.nationalobserver.com/2026/04/03/n...
Data centers don't just damage our climate on a wide scale – they affect it on a hyper-local level too.

Beavers are the engineers of carbon sinks and we would do well to learn from them and embrace their efforts.
A study done by Ontario’s electricity operator found that wind and solar energy combined with battery storage can meet about 99.5% of Ontario’s electricity demand. Renewables can power Ontario’s future. Let's put #RenewablesON!

Same for me.
An example of armchair activism that works! Count me in.
I saw this posted earlier today though I can't remember who shared it. It is a great list of basic preparedness information that will be helpful in any kind of disaster. The best time to start is now.

Holy sh*t. Wab Kinew's government just made using data to increase prices an unfair business practice. This is historic for Canada.
*Proposed bill bans suppliers from charging higher prices to certain consumers based on personalized or algorithmically determined information.

This is almost never mentioned in mainstream news content on transportation!
"Transportation portion of climate-changing emissions has grown by 54% since 1990, in part because people have been driving more and buying bigger pick-up trucks and SUVs
SHIFTING TO EVs IS NOT ENOUGH"

“What are the lessons from the Parisian revolution?
First, pushing out cars improves life for most inhabitants.
Lesson 2 is that banishing cars doesn’t hurt an urban economy.
Lesson 3: car-free cities must offer people good alternative ways to travel. Paris itself does.”

Same could be said for Canada.
I am disgusted and disappointed that the bill didn't pass. Apparently we're OK with arming those committing genocides. Personally, I am very much NOT OK with this.
