The farce of #nuclearpower is laid bare in this 4 min. video. The same pro-nuke arguments are used in every country by parties looking to cash in and con't burning #fossilfuels

(3/5) The climate survivors in the video above calling for action from the @CanadianPM will also be part of an exhibit in #Manhattan tomorrow (Tuesday) featuring artifacts from climate impacts which they brought to NYC.

Fossil fuel execs are not only driving us further into a #ClimateCrisis, but they're openly joking about how easy it is to get our elected officials to do their bidding.

The past four months in California have been a miracle of sorts--a huge modern economy that's now running much of the time on renewable energy

Export Development Canada is financing Haisla Nation/Pembina Pipelines Cedar LNG project to the tune of up to $500 million.
In other words, public money violating a no more fossil fuel subsidies commitment to help bankroll a very risky project.

More deception from big polluters.
On Thursay new truth-in-advertising rules were released, requiring that a company’s commitments to climate change be accurate.
Now Suncor, Imperial Oil, MEG Energy and ConocoPhillips have all scrubbed their climate commitments from their websites.
Big oil is not part of the climate solution.

A call from Canadians to not artificially label oil or gas as 'sustainable' under a taxonomy, read last week by MP @Leah_Taylor_Roy in the House of Commons.
Whether labelled as 'green' or 'climate transition', investments in oil or gas remain misaligned with real climate action.
Last week MP @Leah_Taylor_Roy read a petition in parliament submitted by concerned Canadians requesting that any taxonomy of sustainable finance excludes all fossil fuels!
People in Canada are bored of greenwashing, and are calling on the government for genuine climate action.

Hereditary Chiefs of the Wet’suwet’en First Nation are calling on investors not to buy bonds issued by #CoastalGasLink to re-finance TC Energy's fracked gas pipeline-- which would be Canada's largest ever corporate debt deal. #cdnpoli #bcpoli #ableg bnnbloomberg.ca/indigenous-g…

Great piece here from @SethDKlein on the CBC's climate coverage. Findings show across the network's flagship shows, audiences are routinely left in the dark about what actually causes climate change which is partly why Cdns have awful climate literacy.

65+ NGOs with millions of supporters, in support of Wet'sutwet'en hereditary chiefs, have written to institutional investors calling on them to boycott the impending @CoastalGasLink / @TCEnergy $2.3 billion bond sale.
This fracked gas pipeline is illegal and risky

Taylor Swift’s #ErasTour is coming to Toronto and Vancouver… in partnership with RBC, Canada’s largest fossil fuel funder and major funder of projects violating Indigenous rights. We knew @RBC was trouble when they walked in #RBCIsKillingMe
