                The Disruptor: William Rees Knows How to Save the World
                UBCβs William Rees, creator of the "ecological footprint," warns that endless growth is unsustainable. Can we change course before collapse?
            
        
    
    
            Spent some time with a personal hero: William Rees, the originator of the "ecological footprint." For Vancouver magazine, I wrote about his vision of the planet's carrying capacity, the overshoot problem, and humanity's precarious future.

                Opinion: A love letter to love letters
                What your Valentineβs Day card can mean in an age of constant connection
            
        
    
    
            Love letters are a vanishing art in the age of DMs. 
So, in anticipation of Valentine's Day, I wrote a Love Letter to Love Letters for @theglobeandmail.com. π

                Is misinformation influencing Vancouver City Hall? | The Narwhal
                With a looming by-election, Vancouverites should think hard about what forces are shaping our cityβs β and planetβs β future
            
        
    
    
            Will Vancouver's natural gas ban be undone by misinformation and apathy? We're so lucky to have a writer like @annecasselman.bsky.social who reports the hell out of this infuriating/hilarious/powerful piece.
