Farewell to climate denier Joe Oliver as he retires from the board of the Independent Electricity System Operator (@IESO_Tweets) which manages Ontario's energy grid + pushes for more "natural" gas use. He won't be missed #onpoli #NoMoreGasPlants

"...Doug Ford wants to develop a 5,000-square-kilometre mineral deposit in the area called the Ring of Fire, which could impact an estimated 450 million tonnes of carbon and presents a “huge risk to Canada's climate targets”"

On top of everything else, the Ontario government is attacking our (relatively) clean electricity grid by creating a Clean Energy Credit system so credits can be sold off to U.S. companies
Though it's already been secretly happening since 2013 😮 #onpoli

.@JustinTrudeau is using the Nature #COP15 as an excuse to not attend the Climate #COP27, but he hasn’t invited a single world leader to attend COP15.🙄 Do your duty, Trudeau. Invite world leaders to the Nature COP NOW!⚠️ .@GreenpeaceCA #CdnPoli

New funding for Ontario's energy efficiency programs will deliver meagre emissions reductions + will still have the province increasing the use of gas plants to generate electricity, adding to Ontario emissions
I was happy to join @CBCLorenda on @CBCToronto last night to comment
Let's break our addiction to synthetic fertilizers & build a low emissions food system to support local communities. Let's invest in farmers & organic methods. 🧑🌾 act.gp/3ROZkMI
📢 @mclaudebibeau, don't listen to lobbyists, listen to science!
@GreenpeaceCA
Agriculture was the only major sector in Canada to actually increase greenhouse gas emissions in 2020. A BIG CULPRIT = synthetic nitrogen fertilizers. 😒
📢 @mclaudebibeau, we need to cut #fertilizer emissions by 50%!

Just another scheme for Big Polluters to have their cake & eat it, too. Do better @s_guilbeault 🙄

Great piece on the developing Canada-Indonesia CEPA by @GreenShaneM from @GreenpeaceCA and Syahrul Fitra from @GreenpeaceID
Without strong environmental protections, this trade agreement could worsen inequality, bidoversity loss, and climate change

"Protecting the environment and people’s rights are not “barriers” to #Indonesia-Canada trade. A good deal must recognize social and environmental rules necessary for all communities," argue Greenpeace campaigners @GreenShaneM and @syahrul_fitra. #CdnPoli

.@s_guilbeault Rampant resource exploitation is driving the biodiversity crisis and environmental racism in Canada. We need a Biodiversity Act that respects nature and upholds Indigenous sovereignty. Will you commit to passing one? @GreenpeaceCA act.gp/3D84Bbr

Ever wonder just how sustainable certified paper and lumber really is? For @asparagusmag I dissected 2 major forest certifiers and dove into their controversial histories.

Internal documents show the gov’t still plans to sign #CanadaMercosur!
Per year, this trade deal would import $1.8 BILLION of Brazilian meat - an industry that directly fuels Amazon fires.
@JustinTrudeau - your cabinet MUST prioritize the Amazon >> act.gp/3jjFzh8
Corporate giant #Bayer asked Health Canada to raise the limit of #glyphosate allowed in our food.
The herbicide harms our health and the environment. We need less, not more!
