TALK WITH OTHERS! NEW POLLING SHOWS : 58% of Canadians say transitioning away from fossil fuels toward renewable energy is more important than ever, in light of U.S. aggression. 59% believe Canada would be safer if it produced more renewable energy. 67% say reliance on oil and gas increases the risk of international conflict.
Canadians are strongly opposed to foreign aggression to secure access to natural resources. 70% say that it’s completely unacceptable for one country to use military force to take control of another nation’s resources. 72% percent say it would be unacceptable for the United States to have arrested Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro to access oil reserves. 80% say it would be unacceptable for the United States to seize Greenland for its natural resources.
New poll conducted after the U.S. actions in Venezuela and threats to seize Greenland finds that a majority of Canadians believe made-in-Canada renewable energy is MORE IMPORTANT THAN EVER for strengthening Canada’s national security.

This lawsuit was filed by the amazing lawyers at @clientearthusa.bsky.social:
A climate time bomb is ticking in America’s retirement accounts. We’re going to court to stop it.
Most of us work hard, put money aside with each paycheck, and trust it will be there when we retire. But that trust is being betrayed.

We're highlighting a groundbreaking class action lawsuit to hold the company accountable in court.” “A worker filed a precedent-setting lawsuit against one of the world's largest real estate corporations, alleging Cushman & Wakefield's retirement plan managers breached their duties by failing to protect workers' savings from climate-related financial risks.” Arrow icon pointing right in top right corner.

Background photo of an investment graph. Red text box with “Retirement funds are deferred wages & long-term security that workers rely on. Retirement plans aren't abstract financial products; they're deferred wages, long-term security, and a reflection of how employers care for their people in uncertain times. When these critical savings are invested in underperforming fossil fuel companies and climate exposed real estate, employees shoulder risks they never knowingly agreed to.” Arrow icon pointing right in top right corner.

Gray text box with “The Kvek vs. Cushman & Wakefield class action lawsuit in U.S. District Court Western District of Washington, is the first-ever legal challenge on 401(k) managers for ignoring climate financial risk, alleging that such oversight violates their fiduciary duties. We are supportive of this lawsuit and have been working for several decades to educate and activate both public and private sector workers about risks to their pensions and retirement funds.” Arrow icon pointing right in top right corner.

Instead of safeguarding its workers' futures, companies across the United States are funneling retirement savings into risky funds packed with underperforming fossil fuel companies or high-risk businesses like real estate, that can be severely damaged by the impacts of climate change-fueled extreme weather. No matter who you are or how you vote, your retirement should be secure, and this new landmark lawsuit is arguing just that. Retirement savings should be managed to protect working people, not to bankroll polluters or enrich billionaires.” Arrow icon pointing right in top right corner.

But here's the thing – communities are NOT happy about the impact data centers are having on their electric bills and environment.
The solution? Make sure data centers are powered by 24/7, additional renewable energy and built with consent and guidance of the people living nearby.
To claim something you need to be able to prove it.
Unless you're the #BigTech industry.
In that case, you can just tell everyone AI will solve everything and people will just throw money at you. #GreenSky

#BigTech frames AI as a climate solution.
But our new report takes off the rose-tinted smart glasses and shows a harsher reality: plenty of evidence that power-hungry generative AI is harming our planet, and little solid proof it can fight climate change.

✊ “Revoking the decree is more than a political decision.
It confirms that the struggle of #IndigenousPeoples and the communities that resisted was never in vain,” said the Tapajos and Arapiuns Indigenous Council, which represents 14 peoples and led the protest in Para state, in a statement.
