Counteracting Campus Precarity | BC Policy Solutions The Counteracting Campus Precarity research project begins from the conviction that for universities to produce the knowledge that can help us confront the most serious social problems of our time, our campuses must be kept clean and safe and our community must have food to eat.

University cleaning and food service workers tend to be unseen and underappreciated at the best of times.

Even worse is many universities contract out this labour to large, for-profit companies.

In landmark opinion, World Court says countries must address climate change The United Nations' highest court on Wednesday said countries must address the "urgent and existential threat" of climate change by cooperating to curb emissions, as it delivered an opinion set to determine future environmental litigation.

Leadership and bravery by the world's top court:

The International Court of Justice said failure by countries to meet their climate obligations could, in specific cases, lead other states affected by climate change to litigate.

Canada has the money. But it's not being spent on the real emergency.

Great take from @parismarx.com on Mark Carney's use of "decarbonized oil". This is exactly the kind of corporate greenwashing that @donvdavies.bsky.social teamed up with MPs from other parties to ban. 🧵 1/3

Canada’s first LNG export is historic—for all the wrong reasons.

As activist @janellelapointe.bsky.social explains, Canada’s LNG push will wreck the planet, sideline Indigenous peoples, and enrich Big Oil.

Is Suzuki right that it's 'too late'? We are in an era of simultaneous wins and losses All of us who work on climate have long walked a razor’s edge between hope and despair, and the last few months (or years) have made it near impossible to keep one’s balance. But I would put the curre...

To paraphrase @sethdklein.bsky.social

The climate fight is a matter of degrees. Each incremental temperature increase brings mass death, suffering. To not do everything in our power to avoid that next incremental increase is obscene

King Lear is a masterpiece – as told by Akira Kurosawa rather than Shakespeare | Michael Billington The tragedy’s mythic quality appeals to adapters the world over but the Japanese film-maker’s Ran, now rereleased, manages to solve the play’s problems

I was lucky to see the new restoration of Akira Kurosawa's RAN at the @thecinematheque.bsky.social and I fully agree that it's best telling of King Lear I've ever seen.

There's always money for the military. But climate? For years, the climate movement has been calling on the federal government to spend two per cent of GDP on climate infrastructure and action, to no avail. And yet, Canada’s military spending will hit ...

Imagine if we spent on climate action and infrastructure what Carney so casually tossed in for the military – which will be paid for by slashing social programs and international aid.

Highly recommend this new episode of the Climate Emergency Unit's podcast Break in Case of Emergency.

In this episode, @anjaliappadurai.bsky.social offers a terrific tutorial on international negotiations on climate, the global financial system, fairness and global inequality. 👇

Against a blue background, there's a black and white photo of Dogwood BC's Kai Nagata and an image of a pipeline. The text reads "New episode: BC's PRGT pipeline was approved. What's next? (w/ Kai Nagata)"

Against a yellow background, an image of a smartphone has the podcast logo and the name of the episode, with a microphone image and a photo of AirPods.

A 2nd episode this week?! 🔥

BC’s PRGT pipeline was approved. What’s next? (w/ Kai Nagata)

Host @emikonewman.bsky.social speaks with Kai Nagata of @dogwoodbc.bsky.social about the recent PRGT approval, Bills 14 and 15, and the resistance that has risen up in response.

On this new podcast ep. from @climateunit.bsky.social I chatted with my colleague @helloitisdoug.bsky.social about mutilateralism under threat, the recent G7 summit, & why Canada must do its fair share.

Check out our recently launched Fair Shares campaign & sign the petition! (350.org/fairshare)

The term for this is "human trafficking." The Supreme Court has legalized human trafficking when Donald Trump does it.

In which I talk to the great @anjaliappadurai.bsky.social about what happened at the G7 (not a lot) and the launch of the Fair Shares platform – a set of demands for Canada to support international climate action.

If Carney wants to build, he should go big on a Youth Climate Corps If the Liberals want to earn back the trust of young people, they must make a compelling and inspiring offer, and the Youth Climate Corps represents just that.

Carney says he wants to build, build, build. Meanwhile, Canadians (youth in particular) are experiencing an unemployment crisis.

Our solution? A Youth Climate Corps!

Comment: B.C. no longer has a climate plan For years, B.C. has called itself a climate leader. Now, the provincial climate plan is a shambles.

"B.C.’s latest Climate Change Accountability Report says the province will miss its 2030 pollution reduction target by 50%. This grim prediction does not account for climate pollution from future LNG terminals."

Oof.
