Mark Carney has: -scrapped consumer carbon tax -scrapped oil/gas emissions cap -cut $1.3B from environment Canada -weakened industrial carbon pricing -axed 2 billion trees program -approved 1M barrels/day pipeline -weakened greenwashing laws While this is happening:

Stop building pipelines you freaks.

Wildfire activity in British Columbia has intensified significantly over the past few days, and my thoughts are with everyone affected, especially those who have been evacuated from their homes.

Privatized profits, socialized risk. "But as costs fall on the public, oil companies like Chevron and ExxonMobil have reported record profits of $12.1 billion and $14.5 billion over the past quarter, in part due to global oil price spikes driven by Trump’s war with Iran."

"Exxon and Chevron on Friday reported windfall profits for the second quarter. Chevron’s earnings soared nearly 400% to $12 billion compared to $2.5 billion in the same period last year. Exxon’s profits more than doubled to $14.5 billion compared to $7.1 billion in the year-ago period."

The decision will help us hold governments to account across Canada, including in provinces like Alberta which try to shield their environmental decisions from accountability in the courts. We expect the decision to incentivize better environmental decision-making. Read the background to this case:

Supreme Court of Canada Intervention

We will intervene at Canada’s top court in a case that could change how Ecojustice holds governments accountable.

ecojustice.ca

Ecojustice appeared as an intervenor in support of Democracy Watch’s argument that privative clauses cannot restrict or prevent judicial review. The ruling reinforced the important and unique role of the courts as the “primary guardians of the rule of law” in our constitutional framework.

Yesterday the Supreme Court of Canada confirmed that governments cannot place themselves above the law. Congratulations to Democracy Watch for this important victory.

Canada's push to reduce oversight and "streamline" major project approvals (including proposed changes to the Species at Risk Act) is especially concerning for the fate of wild Pacific salmon. Impact assessments & enviro laws aren't inconveniences; they manage risk before irreversible damage occurs

Canada’s infrastructure projects could damage Pacific salmon habitats

Biodiversity policies fail because governments lack the safeguards, accountability mechanisms and political commitment needed to implement them consistently.

Climate crisis-driven heat ‘sucking soils dry’ as extreme drought hits Europe

Climate crisis-driven heat ‘sucking soils dry’ as extreme drought hits Europe

Analysis shows how heatwaves are making atmosphere thirstier, damaging water supplies, food production and power generation Extreme heat supercharged by the climate crisis is sucking Europe dry in summer and intensifying the drought hitting the continent, a scientific analysis has found. Record-breaking heatwaves meant the hot atmosphere strongly evaporated water from rivers, lakes, soils and plants – conditions made 80 times more likely by global heating in western Europe and 40 times more likely in eastern Europe, the study showed. The level of soil dryness in the west was made five times more likely by the pollution from fossil fuels in the west, and 11 times more likely in the east. Continue reading...
