This is inspiring - shifting narrative from powerless to empowering
In 100 days, we’ve changed the political weather.

We show up because this is how we build a nationwide, unified opposition. And 100 days in, that opposition is far more unified and…well…oppositional than it was in January.

Take a step back and look at how the political winds have shifted.

“I urge the Prime Minister to seize this opportunity to realize a healthier future for all.”
Congratulations, @mark-carney.bsky.social! @cape-acme.bsky.social looks forward to seeing a renewed focus on #climateaction from your new government.
#healthyfuture #canpoli
🗳️ The results are (mostly) in: Canadians have elected the Liberal Party to form government.

Now, PM @mark-carney.bsky.social must practice what he's preached for years on climate & kickstart the economic transition that will make 🇨🇦 more resilient.

So exciting to see this initiative. Finally someone talking climate this election! And who better than elected reps who are experiencing climate impacts in their communities.

This is so important to understand -- how social media divides us and is responsible for rapidly spreading misinformation. Right at a time that is critical to understand the complex issues that we are facing.
What is disinformation? What is misinformation? How has social media been weaponized? Follow me down the rabbit hole to learn how Canada's democracy is under attack.

MAGA politics are on the ballot. Pierre Poilievre is following Trump’s playbook—and this election is his chance to bring it to Canada.

Join thousands of Canadians fighting back with facts, action, and hope.

In light of Trump II’s first 18 days of mayhem — including his and Musk’s coup against our system of government — many are asking: “What can I do now?”

Here’s a revised and expanded list, in rough order of importance.

DOGE is reportedly threatening NOAA with massive staff and budget cuts.

NOAA houses the National Weather Service and National Hurricane Center, which produce forecasts and warn people about storms.

This attack on public safety is ripped straight from the pages of Project 2025.

By definition, numerical weather models require international data. The atmosphere knows no geopolitical boundaries: any model that begins and ends at its country’s border is unable to generate reliable predictions until after a weather system crosses its boundaries. Which defeats the purpose!

An internal email obtained by WIRED shows that NOAA workers received orders to pause “ALL INTERNATIONAL ENGAGEMENTS.”
