When the #Irvings say "jump", @Gov_NB says "how high?" Let's see how @susanholt reacts? Irving Paper Ltd. announced it's shutting down half of its operations, blaming what it called “uncompetitive” industrial electricity rates in New Brunswick. #nbpoli theglobeandmail.com/canada/a…

But the good news is that if we can develop policies to store carbon, this will also be good for conserving habitat for declining bird species. @NatureNB @GlobalChangeBio @CBCNews @CPAWSNB @cc_nb nature.com/articles/s41559-0…

Natural climate solutions (often tree planting) have been proposed to fix climate change. But how good are managed eastern Canadian forests for sequestering carbon? Harvesting released about a third of all CO2 emissions from 1985-2020 in New Brunswick. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/…

Nobody can convince me that heart attacks & strokes before age 50 are normal. I've been around for a long time. This is not normal. Most of my doctor colleagues agree in private that something is very, very wrong, but they won't comment publicly.

@GreenPartyNB ’s sustainable forestry plan for Crown lands includes shared decision making w. First Nations, and the end of herbicide spraying. It would also stop large-scale clear cutting to foster healthier & more diverse forests. #Glyphosate #nbpoli atlantic.ctvnews.ca/n-b-elec…

Doctors in New Brunswick, Canada, have identified dozens of patients with similar, unexplained symptoms. No satisfactory explanation has been found, and the New Brunswick syndrome remains shrouded in mystery — and controversy. nyti.ms/3YMf5dK

Was there for @StopSprayingNB and spoke up on just how devastating #nbpoli's #greatresourcegiveaway in forestry is to us all. Somehow stop spraying of glyphosate was missed in the final statement despite acknowledgement that it is a major issue.

A huge thanks to all the environment experts who joined us at the Wu Centre last week for our roundtable. 👏🏻 Each year, we see the effects of climate change get closer to home with more forest fires, coastal erosion, and flooding. Together, we discussed the following needs:
