Chart showing greenhouse gas emissions over time from 1990 to 2022, comparing BC versus G7 Nations. BC's emissions have increased by 26% and Canada's emissions have increased by 16% since 1990. In comparison, all other G7 Nations have reduced emissions: USA by 3%, Japan by 11%, Italy by 21%, France by 27%, EU by 31%, Germany by 40%, and the UK by 50%.

BC MLAs like to claim that BC is a climate leader, but this chart by @bsaxifrage.bsky.social exposes that lie.

BC's emissions have increased by 26% since 1990, while all other G7 Nations have decreased emissions by up to 50%.

Liar liar our communities are on fire. Summer is coming.

CBC Climate Emergency Campaign — Climate Emergency Unit

Last week we released a letter by 5 eminent CBC retirees – David Suzuki, Peter Mansbridge, Adrienne Clarkson, Paul Kennedy & Linden MacIntyre – to CBC News leadership urging CBC to strengthen its Climate Emergency reporting.

Letter & news release here: www.climateemergencyunit.ca/cbc-climate-...

Earth’s ‘vital signs’ show humanity’s future in balance, say climate experts Record emissions, temperatures and population mean more scientists are looking into possibility of societal collapse, report says

Again, scientists are warning that "the future of humanity hangs in the balance" and urging policy makers to rapidly phase down fossil fuel use, particularly methane.

Ads promoting B.C. gas slammed by watchdog as 'greenwashing' but kept running The ads from the Canada Action Coalition breached five clauses of Canada's code for advertising standards. Among other things, the ads were found to be inaccurate and deceptive.

LNG is a fossil fuel.

It is misinformation like this from the fossil fuel industry that distorts the truth, delays climate action, and harms human health.

Kudos to CAPE doctors for exposing this shameful greenwashing by Canada Action Coalition.
