#WhatWorks: When sugar cane is crushed to make sugar, it turns into a pulpy material known as bagasse, which then gets turned into paper.
Sugar cane can be harvested up to four times per year — much quicker than the 30 years it may take for a tree to grow and be chopped down. 🗒️🌳🍬

The Primary Energy Fallacy is the idea that all primary energy from fossil fuels must be replaced with equivalent amount of clean energy.
BUT: Not necessary because >2/3 of all primary energy is lost as waste heat.
Electrification+renewables are far more efficient.

Approximately 5 million Canadians are now covered by National Dental Care plan. For the naysayers, no, the plan doesn’t cover everything but neither do most workplace insurance plans. It's a great help for those who previously had nothing. #cdnpoli
