Israel has approved 34 new illegal settlements in Palestine and announced plans to expand into Lebanon and Syria
Fuck israel.
The world watched as Israel razed Gaza to the ground.
Now, the world is watching as Israel razes Lebanon to the ground.
War crimes beget war crimes — and the failure to bring Israel to justice for genocide has emboldened it to destroy human life with total impunity.

HELL YEAH!
Another story on this farmer being exposed to oil and gas emissions. Tim went there to do the OGI work for us last year. He explained what he saw.
"They just were continuously venting the whole time we were there," he said, adding this was common at sites he visited in other provinces.
MEDIA RELEASE: Four of the world’s biggest investors have voted against the re-election of Santos directors or gas growth aligned executive payments as First Peoples, Market Forces and shareholders urge the company to end risky fossil fuel expansion plans. #climate #auspol #santos
The collapse of the gulf stream will be catastrophic for the entire planet. The crisis in the earth's circulation system continues to be ignored while politicians promote massive oil/gas expansion.
We are killing our children's future.

BREAKING: Senate Republicans blocked my War Powers Resolution that would have ended Trump's unnecessary, unjustified war against Iran.
These cowards have had four chances to stop this chaos in the Middle East.
And they put Trump's ego before America.
Every damn time.
And we have tens of thousands of inactive wells in Alberta, many of which could today be declared as orphan wells. But doing so would change the cleanup / reclamation timeline from Maybe Someday to Now. Neither our regulator the AER, nor the oil & gas industry, nor the AB Gov't are willing to do so.
The number of orphan wells in Alberta will almost double this year. The money the province makes industry set aside to clean them up will rise by only 7 per cent.
That’s a problem. #abpoli

The Simple Math of the Death of LNG An article cover by Justin Mikulka
“With the LNG drought pushing up electricity prices… a boom in rooftop solar is far more likely than a return to coal. Don’t look under the ground for the solution to the LNG crisis. The answer is in the skies.”
Great piece by @justinmikulka.bsky.social

So are we. That’s why we’re participating in a Week of Action from April 13-18 across 5 major cities to call for:
❌ No more public money for Big Oil and Gas
✅ Real investments in a clean, renewable economy that actually benefits people here

I've read dozens of the Prairies Exposed substacks over the past 2-3 months. I'd say three of them have been both important and excellently written. This is one of them.

Sounds a lot like what we allow here in Alberta.
We pay for a world-class regulator, and instead we get a rubber stamp that does whatever the oil and gas industry wants.

New record temperatures aren't just marginally higher, like a javelin setting a new Olympic record. The javelin is leaving the field, and hitting the crowd in the bleachers.

Don't fall for the easy narrative that costly gas will mean more coal burn in Asia. Briefly in the short term may be, argues @davidfickling.bsky.social, but the long term trajectory toward renewables gets stronger.
Look at the math behind the argument. 🎁🔗 www.bloomberg.com/opinion/arti...
Claims that Carney's natural gas expansions are about helping the Canadian economy are solidly disproven by the fact that the Ksi Lisims LNG project is owned by a Texas based US company headed by a major Trump donor. It will be operated by the same US company. 9/

Again, LNG = even worse than coal. It's climate kryptonite. Carney talks reducing methane emissions while pursuing methane expansion. It's like saying you're dedicated to veganism while opening several new slaughterhouses. 8/
