Keep putting pressure on decisionmakers to back real climate solutions and ditch dangerous distractions like LNG and carbon offsets.

Accessible, affordable clean energy is the answer, not more dirty fossil fuels. #JustTransitionNow

Tell Doug Ford: Hands off local climate action! You can’t make this up 🙄 Doug Ford is trying to destroy… local green building policies. Ford has spent years decimating climate initiatives and curtailing local authority. In the midst of his anti-cl...

That’s a win for everyone…except Enbridge.

Makes you wonder: Who is this bill really for? 👀

📢Tell the Ontario government: we deserve a climate-safe future.

Take action.

Ford’s new Housing bill attacking local green building standards would pave the way for additional gas pipelines and hookups, locking people into using polluting gas furnaces and boilers for years to come. 🚨

Green building standards mean safer homes and lower monthly heating and cooling bills.

Doug Ford is rolling out the red carpet for fossil fuel giant Enbridge Gas. 🤑

🛢️Enbridge already supplies gas to most of Ontario residents for home heating — and it wants even more customers.

More gas users means more profits.

Only #BigOil & Gas in Canada benefits from war in the Middle East - everyone else from small businesses, to consumers, to farmers and even other industrial sectors lose.

THIS is why hitching our future on more oil and gas doesn't make any sense.
