Is Climate Change Making Inflation Worse?

Yes, #ClimateChange is contributing to the affordability crisis in markets for food, electricity, and housing.

And prices for these essentials are only going to rise further and faster until we #EndFossilFuels.

@chrislhayes.bsky.social how about a segment on this?

We’re already facing the consequences of two-tier health care. Doug Ford is opening the door to make it even worse The latest data shows Ontario is short nearly 29,000 registered nurses compared to the rest of Canada. Yet, instead of fixing this, the government is diverting resources to for-profit centres,

Doug Ford’s $100+ billion bet: Why Ontario is spending big on nuclear — even as the rest of the world turns to solar and wind A nuclear plant can provide the power of tens of thousands of renewables all at once — even when the wind isn’t blowing, and the sun isn’t shining. If only

How Ontario keeps the true cost of nuclear power off your hydro bill Doug Ford was elected on a pledge to bring hydro bills down, and the rapid increases have since ended — but not because the power is cheaper.

Intentionally killing innocent people is always wrong.

Wherever in the world it happens.

You might think everyone agrees with this simple moral principle, and yet far too many people, on far too many different sections of the political spectrum, try and make exceptions to it.

Today, @petertabuns.bsky.social tabled an act in the Ontario Legislature to better protect communities from urban wildfires.

We're seeing toxic wildfire smoke in Toronto. Our governments need to be proactive, because wildfires don’t respect borders.

Zillow Removes Climate Risk Scores From Home Listings

Realtors know that, in many parts of the country, if you educate people about climate risk, the housing market will collapse.

Zillow Removes Climate Risk Scores From Home Listings

Lol, Zillow tried to rate the climate risks facing individual properties. The real estate industry *hated* it, precisely because it worked -- it made selling risky properties more difficult. So they rebelled & Zillow caved.

Don't look up!

Countries failing to act on UN climate pledge to triple renewables, thinktank finds Fossil fuel reliance likely to continue and Cop28 target of limiting global heating to below 1.5C will be missed

Ignoring the global pledge to takeclimate action is exactly what Ford’s energy plan does. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

‘Climateflation’ could push up UK food prices by more than a third by 2050, report says Exclusive: Increasingly extreme weather a threat to production and supply chains in Britain and elsewhere

Ford’s delays to #Climate action will mean higher food prices. Climate action delayed is climate action denied.

According to the latest findings by @bsc-cns.bsky.social , extreme weather, driven by climate change, is sending food prices surging across the globe. For countries reliant on imports, these climate-fuelled disruptions carry real risks - especially vulnerable households struggling with living costs.

UN says booming solar, wind and other green energy hits global tipping point for ever lower costs NEW YORK (AP) — The global switch to renewable energy has passed a “positive tipping point” where solar and wind power will become even cheaper and more widespread, according to

Why Texas’ floods are a warning for the rest of the country The disaster that unfolded in Kerr County, Texas shows how many communities will struggle to prepare for extreme weather as the federal government pulls back.

Kerr County, Texas, wasn’t prepared for the flood that killed more than 100 this weekend.

Other communities across the U.S. may be just as vulnerable, experts warn — citing the soaring toll of climate change and steep Trump-era cuts to weather and disaster spending.

They say Muskoka won’t burn. But climate has changed the calculus Computer models have failed to predict a series of “impossible” blazes — which means more places once thought of as safe need to start confronting the risk.

Ford and politicos like him are setting us up for a climate future we don’t want. www.thestar.com/news/ontario...

Global average temperature is expected to rise to almost 2C above preindustrial in the next five years, according to the WMO, with falls in crop yields and more than a third of the world’s population being exposed to extreme heat.

People, I'm sorry but we have to deal with this. Later is too late.

There are tragic consequences when we fail to act on #ClimateChange. Ford is not just failing to act, he is undermining action.
