"Who gets to catch the last salmon? If we have to ask that question, we have failed."

"70 per cent of B.C. salmon populations are in decline. Aggressive forestry leads to landslides and flooding. Poorly regulated mines pollute waters. The federal government recently passed legislation that can fast-track major projects and bypass environmental assessments, and are also talking of more pipelines. Continued inaction to reduce greenhouse gas emissions is making the ocean increasingly inhospitably warm for salmon."

"… some countries are better positioned to weather this energy crisis than they would have been just a few years ago. That's because of the rapid growth of renewable energy, battery systems and electric vehicles".

"That's not a coincidence", but "a deliberate strategy" to move away from fossil fuels and electrify.

“It is vital that we fight to prevent every fraction of a degree of additional warming. Each year that we delay acting with the urgency required loads the dice further in favour of more weather extremes that will take lives and destroy livelihoods”

“Not only do worsening climate change impacts threaten lives and livelihoods in Brazil, but they are actively adding costs to the day-to-day prices we pay in the supermarket here at home”

"Just a reminder that no one's ever fought a war over wind or sunshine, and if you are tired of being beholden to volatile fossil fuel prices like petrol and diesel, please, if you can, please consider switching to an electric car. You will never look back and you will save so much money."

David Suzuki: "There are no valid economic arguments against rapidly shifting from burning polluting fossil fuels to cleaner energy sources".

Renewables are reliable, cost less, and are immune to oil's market volatility.

Humanity is heating the planet faster than ever before, with the global heating rate almost doubling over the last 10 years:

'Climate scientists suspect global heating of 1.5C-2C may be enough to trigger near-apocalyptic “tipping points” that play out over decades and centuries, with the chances of catastrophe increasing at higher levels of warming'

Reminder: while the #EU may be on track to meet their climate targets, #Canada won't meet *any* of ours -- thanks to "a slackening of policy effort over the past year, marked by the removal or weakening of climate policies across the country"
