1/📣New analysis reveals that fossil fuel lobbying has skyrocketed under PM Carney’s government In the first year of PM Carney’s government, oil lobbyists had over 1300 meetings – that’s 5 times per working day. environmentaldefence.ca/2026/08/06/f...

From the brilliant folks @Ember: For the first time, every OECD country is generating less electricity from fossil fuels than at its historical peak. Canada is at the bottom (4th last) - ie we're one of the laggards in the OECD in terms of phasing out fossil fuel generation

I teamed up with young Canadians & doctors to take the federal government to court, given that PM Carney has dismantled every significant measure in the Emissions Reduction Plan to the point where it is no longer compliant with the Net-Zero Emissions Accountability Act ecojustice.ca/file/demandi...

Think the energy transition isn't happening? Think again: Renewables surged to almost half of global electricity capacity in 2025 And of course, countries with higher renewable capacity have been more insulated from the Iran war market shock www.theglobeandmail.com/business/int...

As April 1st approaches, let’s not be fossil fooled again Maybe PM Carney once thought that a grand bargain with Alberta and the oil industry was possible. It's now obvious he has been hoodwinked by Premier Smith and her handlers in the oil and gas business. www.hilltimes.com/wp-content/u...

New analysis from Influence Map shows that the Canadian Chamber of Commerce actively pushes against climate policy in Canada Instead of representing Canadian businesses, their climate policy mirrors that of CAPP influencemap.org/briefing/The...

Just as ridiculous as Trump's "clean coal", Carney is now saying "sustainable production of oil and gas"

Carney's Davos speech has not aged well Carney condemning Iran's attacks but not US & Israel is exactly what he said he wouldn't do He's the shopkeeper putting a sign in his window

Just the Globe and Mail helping the fossil fuel industry conduct its war profiteering...

Governments have been fighting over definitions for nearly two decades...as a distraction from actually phasing them out. The WTO has had a clear definition for years iisd_presentation_fossil_fuel_subsidies.pdf

This is the technofix Carney's so excited about: World’s largest CCS project hits new low on amount of carbon captured and stored Not only has Chevron's Gorgon failed to hit its targets, its performance has declined significantly over time reneweconomy.com.au/worlds-large...

All of this was ostensibly to strengthen industrial carbon pricing, but it's actually set to weaken pricing and undermine the entire regime

Canada committed to phasing out fossil fuel subsidies over a decade ago The government's claims to have accomplished this are bogus, now confirmed by the Auditor General's office www.oag-bvg.gc.ca/internet/Eng...

Interesting new tool to identify dead-end climate approaches LNG, CCS for fossil fuels & gas power all clearly are dead-ends, using this tool journals.plos.org/climate/arti...

#Budget2025 backtracks on the longstanding promise to end public financing of fossil fuel projects Instead there's a reference to a 'strategic financing framework' to guide public financing You can bet that will mean more public handouts to oil & gas

Carney acts like having the lowest marginal effective tax rate in the G7 doesn't mean gifts for corporations at the expense of Canadians and the services we rely on #Budget2025

Oil and gas companies are doing everything in their power to delay climate action & protect their profits. Great work by @environmentaldefence.ca & @e-belliveau.bsky.social to expose the fossil fuel playbook environmentaldefence.ca/2025/09/18/e...

3 out of 4 Canadians are concerned about the climate crisis, up 15-points since October 2024, according to Abacus abacusdata.ca/public-conce...

New survey finds 75% of Canadians favour using taxes on oil & gas to retaliate against Trump They're right: a 15% export tax is one of our strongest leverage points it could generate substantial revenues for impacted workers & businesses in other sectors www.ctvnews.ca/federal-elec...

Big Banks are predicting -- and directly fueling -- a catastrophic 3 degrees of warming Their focus? How to maintain profits as the world burns www.eenews.net/articles/big...

A reminder that US interests dominate in terms of equity ownership of so-called "Canadian" fossil fuel companies www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

NEW POLL: Majority of Canadians support climate action and renewable energy ahead of federal election In these turbulent times, Canadians are sticking to their values of taking care of each other and the environment. ow.ly/lhtl50VjlL5

Interesting to note that China uses relatively little fuel compared with higher-income countries The OECD, whose member countries collectively match China’s total population, used four times as much fuel as China did in 2024

Fossil fuel, plastic, and agrichemical companies all coordinate to promote climate denial on social media, new report finds www.desmog.com/2025/01/15/p...

Some positive stats from @canrea.bsky.social -Canada’s wind, solar and energy-storage sectors grew 46% in the last 5 years -solar energy capacity grew 92% -energy storage capacity grew 192%

Fossil fuels are trying to greenwash the sports we love It's called sportswashing: they capitalize on people's love of sport to gain goodwill -- while continuing to fuel climate disasters We can't let them get away with it - this morning we pushed back 👇👇 environmentaldefence.ca/2025/02/08/e...

Check out who is behind this #hydrogen conference happening in Toronto - it's PetroChem Canada Hydrogen is all about increasing markets for oil & gas (Interesting that PetroChem Canada is not mentioned anywhere on the official website... www.hydrogentoronto.com)

The evidence keeps accumulating: #hydrogen is not competitive with electrification when it comes to transportation Hydrogen refuelling firm Cavendish to lay off 45% of its workforce www.hydrogeninsight.com/transport/hy...

Over the past three years Enbridge has spent far more on expanding its oil and gas pipelines, paying dividends and buying back its own stocks than it has invested in renewable technologies
