The past ten years have seen a revolution in how Canada tackles climate change.
But they've also shown us that climate action cannot succeed without dismantling the fossil fuel industry’s grip on policy.

Although youth activists are less visible than we were in 2019, we are still here, just in new capacities, writes Malaika Collette @CANRacCanada #cdnpoli #NewYorkClimateWeek nationalobserver.com/2024/10…

Five years have passed since the massive 2019 climate strikes, but the urgency is greater than ever – and youth activists haven't gone away.
Read today's op-ed from @MalaikaCollette, our Youth Policy Assistant, in @NatObserver.

There is still time to share your thoughts on how we can help Canadians understand the #environment, #ClimateChange and #biodiversity.
Act fast! You have until July 3, 2024.

This genocide is changing history.
Longstanding narratives are being laid to rest, buried in the rubble of Gaza.
⛔️Israel guarantees Jewish safety
🙅🏻♂️The IDF is "the most moral army in the world"
🚫Canada is an honest broker
My thoughts from a recent @FacultyJewish event:

Draft text from #COP28 dropped this morning at 5am. Here's a look at where we stand on the push for this set of UN climate talks to deliver global agreement to phaseout fossil fuels and scale up renewables and efficiency:

There's lots of announcements and news coming out of #COP28. I'm here to rank them for you from a climate scientist's perspective, using 🌴 for the wins and 🤦♀️ for the facepalms.
Did I miss something? Let me know and I'll add it to this list! #ClimateAction #COP28FromHome 🧵

Today on Democracy Now, a guest spoke about the hundreds of people alive but trapped under the rubble in Gaza who are slowly dying.
I can’t stop thinking about being conscious to your own slow death and the level of moral depravity it takes to not call for an end to the bombings

I am the only Palestinian American serving in Congress, and my perspective is needed here now more than ever. I will not be silenced and I will not let anyone distort my words.
I’m from Detroit, where I learned to speak truth to power, even if my voice shakes.

"We want medicine, food and education. We want to live as the other children live."
@JustinTrudeau and every MP refusing to call for a ceasefire should be forced to look these children in the eye and explain why they're underserving of basic dignity.

MAJOR victory today 🎉
In 2021, we proposed the Climate Corps and launched a massive inside-outside organizing effort to win it.
Today, the American Climate Corps has finally come true.
Thank you to @POTUS and the countless communities and organizers who made this a reality💪🏽
Today, I'm taking executive action to launch the American Climate Corps – a workforce initiative that will train over 20,000 young people for good-paying jobs in the clean energy and climate resilience economy.

AOC is on fire: We will not give up. We will not let go. We will not allow cynicism to prevail. #ClimateAction #EndFossilFuels

I don’t understand how anyone can support a 2024 Democratic primary candidate who approves the Willow project or exporting LNG from Alaska.
I would cancel both on Day One.
