What worries me with ice is that the public has no way of knowing if they are really ice. They have unmarked vehicles, wear masks, show no warrants or legal paperwork, no identification, and appear very unprofessional and violent. Anyone could be impersonating ice to terrorize our communities.

"Beijing also did not commit to buying more Canadian petroleum and liquified natural gas in the MOU signed by energy and natural resources minister Tim Hodgson."
Wow. Shocking. The country leading the world in renewables doesn't want more fossil fuels. /s

The amount of time I've quoted, shared, and even duped this comic's first panel as my personal MS Teams background without ever knowing it was a full 6-panel comic, that it had a title, and that it's 13 years old today!!! 🎉

So the current president of the United States captured an 'illegitimate' president of Venezuela and now plans on *checks notes* legitimately governing Venezuela in the interim.
Got it.

Really good read. Incredibly insightful
A very long and important THREAD -
The real reason the US is invading Venezuela goes back to a deal Henry Kissinger made with Saudi Arabia in 1974.
And I'm going to explain why this is actually about the SURVIVAL of the US dollar itself.
Not drugs. Not terrorism. Not "democracy." 1/

This paper proposes to use nuclear bombs to blow up the seafloor to increase alkalinity and take up atmospheric CO₂. What could go wrong? 🤷🏻♂️

Occasional reminder that there’s no, “it’s too late, its over” for anthropogenic climate change. Every molecule of CO2 that doesn’t go into the atmosphere makes a difference. Preventing 0.1 degree of warming makes a difference. Every bit of climate resilience we build together makes a difference.
