"Mr. #Guilbeault, a career #environmentalist, played a key role in many of the previous Liberal government’s #climateinitiatives now being watered down, stalled or reversed by the current government. He plans to resign from his seat later this summer."

As I watch a vacant lot two houses down from us get clear cut it fills me with such sadness.

Here in Florida we are in a drought. There's a burn ban at the moment. I had the random thought but think it would be really smart policy:

Burn Ban should be extended to place a hold on ALL clear cutting, paving, and tree removal. As long as we're in a drought and heat wave there is no justification for exacerbating the situation.

🗨️ 👩🏽‍💻 So - If we're talking about the encouraging development of artificial intelligence #AI for the benefit of #humankind then the political class should be replaced first -

Why?

Because we squander unimaginably large amounts of #data and #energy just to report on them - this can surely be done more efficiently; i.e, by pointing to the so-called #environmentalist parties that spend all day making #money by posting self-promotion -

Btw a machine is better at obeying #humanitarian laws (Asimov)

Environmentalists should Build the TDG

Environmentalists have not been able to effect their agenda enough in western democracies.

Environmentalists should continue putting pressure on their governments.

But maybe they should put time and energy in a new democracy:
