I really wish someone in the media would flip this around:
"Group dashes community hopes to replace 100 year old middle school - with no ventilation or fields - in only remaining central location."
Look at it from the perspective of students and staff who are waiting on a much needed new school.

Our community deserves a middle school at the NBEX grounds. Figure it out, please?

It’s frustrating to watch interviews like the one between the @thedailyshow.com’s Jon Stewart & @elizkolbert.bsky.social tonight, suggesting we don’t know the solutions to the #ClimateCrisis, & better solutions aren’t “politically viable.” WE KNOW THE SOLUTIONS, AND ONLY CORRUPTION MAKES THEM HARD.

And the least climate and sustainability friendly budget since the Harper years passes. Sigh.
ICYMI: Canada burned this summer, trees burned, and they cut the 2 billion trees, planting them, program. Also goes against Canada’s 2030 Nature Strategy.

Someone should do an #EmbodiedCarbon assessment of the proposal natural gas plant... when considering #UpfrontCarbon, is it actually an overall reduction?

Yikes… is this where the UK is at?
Keir Starmer's aides are reportedly telling him not to go to the COP30 climate conference, because Reform would attack him for it.
Yes, they might.
And he should wear it as a badge of honour.
Standing up for humanity, for science and a habitable planet.
Where's the hazard in that?

Who seriously would rather have the new Freddy middle school up at the top of the roundabout at Bishop’s Drive? So almost no kids can walk/bike/roll to school? And have to cross a highway?
