Liber Ero Fellowship Program

I still remember what it felt like to be named a Liber Ero Fellow about 10 years ago.

It's a vote of confidence and support at exactly the moment when early-career researchers need to think boldly, do rigorous research, and take smart risks.

Programs like this make a big difference. liberero.ca

It should be no surprise that environmental NGOs are under specific, intensive, & sustained attack by a de facto alliance of right-wing (think Project 2025) & centrist forces (think Abundance).

Torture State USA It’s called “the box.” A tiny 2x2 enclosure where people are forced to spend hours exposed to the elements.

There are 400 Canadians including toddlers who have been kidnapped by ICE. Amnesty International is now reporting on the use of torture at the detention facilities. This is the march of American fascism.

Enough deals with provinces, just enforce the law: Guilbeault To make progress on the targets, the federal government should keep federal regulations to clean up Canada’s electricity grid, make good on repeated (and so far unfulfilled) promises to strengthen ind...

Canada has the authority to enforce environmental laws, yet is choosing not to as climate targets fade into the distance.

Former environment minister Steven Guilbeault says it's time for the federal government to tell provinces: "Actually, you can't break the law."

Exxon’s new greenwashing ploy The oil giant claims it can eliminate more than 90 percent of emissions from gas-powered AI facilities. Critics say that’s nonsense.

FYI because there will be false claims:

Carbon capture has never been used successfully at a commercial gas-fired power plant in the U.S., and no existing carbon capture facility has ever consistently achieved a 90 percent capture rate.

A progress bar to $200,000, about two-thirds full

Fewer and fewer media outlets are putting resources toward the slow, expensive work of dragging government secrets into the light. Will you help us raise $200,000 to keep digging?

All donations to The Narwhal will be matched through Dec. 31 — doubling your impact!

Nice trailhead sticker! I was astounded to see (and paddle) a trailhead boat in southern Guyana a few years ago — moved there from the NWT of all places.

WTAF:

@cityofwinnipeg.bsky.social considering removing bylaw for bird-friendly windows.

Bylaw only applies to new builds along major corridors & near malls!

But industry doesn’t like it. So nature takes the hit, literally.

Winnipeggers, you gotta write to council.
