... and the #FossilFuelIndustry is nowhere to be seen or heard of. Even worse we keep propping up their business model that depends on free polluting and tax subsidies. This vicious circle has to end and fast ... No more time to waste. #LastGeneration #StopOilNow #GreenNewDealNow #TaxBigOil

Helene and Milton are both likely to be $50 billion disasters, joining ranks of most costly storms

Monstrous hurricanes Helene and Milton caused so much complex havoc that damages are still being added up, but experts in economics, insurance and risk say they are likely to be in the pantheon of super-costly $50 billion disasters. That would put them in the company of storms like Katrina, Sandy and Harvey. Making those costs even more painful is that most of that damage, particularly in Helene's case, was not insured. Several experts say damages are skyrocketing because people are building in harm’s way, reconstruction costs are soaring faster than inflation and human-caused climate change is making storms stronger and wetter.

@350Canada #TaxBigOil bumper sticker added to my Prius Prime. Yes, it has a gas tank but I haven't put any in it since I bought it and the engine only comes on to demist the windscreen.

Big oil companies made record profits while we struggle with #inflation and the climate crisis. Tell your local and national government Reps to tax Big Oil's excess profits to fund a #JustTransition to clean energy.

Tax Big Oil to Fund a Just Transition

Canada's oil and gas sector is making record profits. Meanwhile, the rest of us struggle with surging prices and more extreme weather. It’s time to make polluters pay their fair share. We know we can’t trust these companies to direct their record profits into climate solutions. Our government needs to take the decision out of their hands with a Windfall Profits Tax. Join thousands of people across the country calling on Justin Trudeau and Steven Guilbeault to tax the excess profits of fossil fuel companies to pay for loss and damage, and fund a just transition to 100% clean energy that puts workers and communities first.
