Emissions from #LNG Canada Phase 1 and 2 are expected to be equal to adding 900,000 cars to the road.

🤔 How do you deal with mis/disinformation?
Slow down, check the source, and look for credible science.
In all the noise, truth matters — especially for the climate. 🌏💚

If Canada wants to fulfill its role in the fight against climate change, it must stop supporting new fossil fuel projects while partnering with petro-states.

Let's stop backtracking. Canada must show some climate ambition. #COP30

🎉 Today at COP30, the world committed to center justice for workers & communities in the UN climate talks, with the decision to develop a Just Transition mechanism.

⚠️ But on adaptation, finance & implementing the transition away from fossil fuels, the COP30 outcome falls short.

We hear the term greenwashing a lot… but what is it?
It’s when companies pretend to be climate-friendly while doing the opposite — marketing dressed up as climate action. ♻️
