While Canada is one of only 25 countries to share its plans to protect biodiversity ahead of #COP16Cali starting on October 21 in Colombia, it says little on Target 22 to “ensure the full protection of environmental human rights defenders": https://t.co/9bXPnK1Dff

Did you know that BC allows the spraying of a toxic chemical called #glyphosate on forests that are being logged? It kills natural plants & wildlife & increases risk of wild fires. Come to this event on March 21 at 6:30 p.m at Heritage Hall to learn more! https://t.co/jE9sgR3oCz

This is great to see. The Gitanyow Hereditary Chiefs are challenging Ksi Lisims LNG to *prove* their GHG reduction claims (spoiler alert - good luck to the proponents). The Gitanyow are calling on gvt to without approval in the absence of clear evidence. https://t.co/ofwwxSxOme

If more than 70% of a city's homes, schools and hospitals were destroyed in a storm or earthquake it would be one of the worst natural disasters ever. This was done by humans, on purpose, with the full support of the west. Completely unforgivable. #FreePalestine
Shocking footage shows unimaginable destruction in📍#Gaza city, including our health centre. +70% of civilian infrastructure- including homes, hospitals & schools- have been destroyed or severely damaged. 84% of health facilities have been affected by attacks. Nowhere is safe.

"69% of the global population expresses a willingness to contribute 1% of their personal income, 86% endorse pro-climate social norms and 89% demand intensified political action" Most people want stronger climate action and are prepared to pay for it 1/

Ever see misleading ads from the oil and gas industry and think "how is this legal?!". Tired of the greenwashing and propaganda from big polluters? Well, a new proposed law would address just that! Check it out.
For decades, big oil has been lying about the benefits of their products, about how much they pollute, and about their plans to pollute less. Bill #C372, introduced by @CharlieAngusNDP, will ban their lies and the promotion of products that are making us sick

The idea that #LandAct changes would give First Nations a "veto" is false & inflammatory. BC conservative party who are screaming false information & fanning fear based on lies should be held accountable and apologize. Don't believe these lies my friends! https://t.co/NNMosxaCmL

In any other instance, blowing up a place of worship with people taking refuge inside would draw swift reaction from governments around the world. The free pass the west gives to Israel is unnacceptable and be totally condemned by history. #FreePalestine #CeasefireNow
Israeli warplanes targeted the Al-Huda Mosque in Rafah, dozens of displaced Palestinians were sheltering inside.
