Iceberg A-23A Turns Blue, Faces Final Days After 40 Years
Iceberg A-23A, one of the largest and longest-lived Antarctic icebergs, is now covered in bright blue meltwater and breaking apart. Scientists say it's entering its final days.

As part of the most ambitious animal welfare strategy in a generation, England will end the use of hen cages and pig farrowing crates, ban trail hunting and puppy farming, and more by 2030.

Who needs clean, green, competitive industry when you have the Liberal government throwing taxpayer money at you for business-as-usual China is going to eat Canada's lunch. The Liberals gave the company $50 million for...doing nothing.

The thermometer on my balcony reads +12 and with the sun blasting down its feeling almost like sundress weather in .

The is in the details for AB-Ottawa MOU for 2nd pipeline + carbon capture project:

the Alliance "business model of a carbon sequestration project is essentially this: companies capture and store carbon dioxide, earn credits for doing so, sell the credits to others and generate revenue... Whatever is left over is profit."

:canada: Public subsidies of CAD$16+ billion for foreign private profit

the Alliance project and fossil fuel companies could earn more from the emissions it manages to capture -- if there is a higher industrial carbon price!!!

Pathways Alliance is using a "project splitting strategy, a tactic to divide its megaproject into 126 smaller segments which minimizes consideration of cumulative impacts through Athabasca Chipewyan territory

A comprehensive environmental impact assessment to study the entire project was denied.

CO2 (odorless, colourless) pipelines are environmentally risky, pose threats to health & safety

Trump pulling out, something we wish his father learned to do.

AB-Ottawa MOU for 2nd pipeline + Pathways Alliance carbon capture project: The is in the details.

In addition to expecting Canadian taxpayers to pay est. CAD$16+ billion for the megaproject:

the Alliance spent more $$$ advertising + lobbying against emissions reduction policies than actually building the carbon capture trunk line

claims that carbon capture will export decarbonized oil a "scientifically fraudulent term... as the vast majority of greenhouse gas emissions from oil come from when it is burned, not produced"

claims to reduce multi-million tonnes of emissions by 2030 and 2050 total emissions are actually HIGHER than the status quo when paired w/ new oil pipeline and production (according to Pembina)

claims "investments" (by public) would "put the industry on a path to net-zero by 2050" the Competition Bureau investigated , but PM's 2025 budget indicated those anti-greenwashing rules would be watered down

I wish I was kidding but when was the last full summer you remember, when the weather was consistently sunny through this period For me it was 2016. Since 2017, our summers have largely been like this. A few nice days but a ton of grey and rainy days.

"Trump is bullying countries including Canada through tariffs into further dependence on volatile . We have to be very clear-eyed about this & where the rest of the world is going. needs to get smart on if we're serious about making our economy thrive."

Climate change is melting glaciers and ice sheets faster than they can regrow
The Greenland ice sheet has lost more than 5 trillion tons of ice in 20 years.

A bombshell: doubt cast on discovery of microplastics throughout human body.

Some scientists say many detections are most likely error, with one high-profile study called a joke.

When I first saw the ocean temperatures literally go off the charts (Mar 2023) I wrote a drabble (a story of exactly 100 words) about it and published it as a zine.

Underwater Cameras Could Help Unlock Americas Tidal Energy Industry

Analysis of an experimental tidal turbine in Washington state recorded no collisions with seals or birds. Underwater turbines could ultimately provide clean energy to over 20 million U.S. homes, the Energy Department says

The study found that in most parts of India, deeper groundwater levels reduce plant productivity and carbon storage efficiency. When plants have to draw water from deeper underground, they grow less efficiently and store less carbon

Taken together, these results suggest that, had Britain deployed no wind power over recent decades and had instead relied more on gas, power prices could have been up to 49/MWh (67% i.e. two-thirds) higher in 2025 compared to if renewables had been rolled out faster
