The increase in whale, dolphin, and other cetacean deaths off the East Coast of the United States since 2016 is not due to the construction of large industrial wind turbines, U.S. government officials say.
Their scientists have done the research, they say, to prove that whatever is killing the whales is completely unrelated to the wind industry.
Soil can be considered black gold, and we’re running out it.
The United Nations declared soil finite and predicted catastrophic loss within 60 years.
“There are places that have already lost all of their topsoil,” Jo Handelsman, author of “A World Without Soil,” and a professor at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, told CNBC.
Shortly after reaching the White House, President Biden ended Keystone XL pipeline construction and began working with congressional Democrats, environmentalists and bureaucrats to impose leasing and drilling moratoriums, slow-walk permits, pressure financial institutions to deny funding to fossil fuel companies, and implement “social cost of carbon” rules, “environmental justice” programs, “windfall profit” taxes and other policies to close down fossil fuel projects and bankrupt companies.
Suggesting his brain is an irony-free zone, federal Environment Minister Steven Guilbeault told Bloomberg News last week that Canada can’t replace Russian oil and natural gas supplies to Europe because, “our export capacity is pretty much maxed out.”
Of course, the reason it’s maxed out is Canada’s lack of oil and natural gas pipelines, the same ones Guilbeault campaigned against in his previous life as a Greenpeace activist.
It is the West’s wacko environmentalists who handed Russian President Vladimir Putin the leverage and money to invade Crimea in 2014 and Ukraine this week.
Without these wackos, Putin would be just another gangster in charge of a crumbling country, and maybe one on the verge of a revolution to depose him.
A CBC News article on the illegal pipeline protests and blockades dogging the Coastal GasLink LNG pipeline in British Columbia is full of inaccuracies and left-wing bias.
The article, presented as an explainer on how the illegal blockades allegedly help keep “emissions in the ground,” is not based on scientific fact, but rather is full of baseless environmentalist guesswork.
“Revoking the permits for the [Line 5] pipeline that delivers oil from western Canada across Wisconsin, the Great Lakes and Michigan and into Ontario, would please environmentalists who have urged the White House to block fossil fuel infrastructure, but it would aggravate a rift with Canada and could exacerbate a spike in energy prices that Republicans are already using as a political weapon,” Politico Pro reported. “Killing a pipeline while U.S. gasoline prices are the highest in years could be political poison for Biden, who has seen his approval rating crash in recent months.”
Suzuki’s comments made a stir on social media. Many commentators suggested that Suzuki was ostensibly accepting violence and even encouraging it.

UNDRIP is only affecting BC so far, wait until it’s in full swing.

The first big move of the newly elected city council, however, was a long punt: Instead of an urgent push for change, council voted to embark on creating a new city-wide plan, a ponderous process that has ended up taking almost its entire term in office.
Three years later, the broad outlines of that plan are finally coming into focus. The framework was released this week. It covers climate issues and the local economy, but it’s centred on the need for more housing through more density, especially in the many neighbourhoods zoned for single-family homes.
California legislators have not only cut ties with reality—failing to see that they’re heading for ever more blackouts—they also want to cut their citizens’ last lifeline to reliable power when blackouts inevitably occur.
“Canadians are tired of plastic littering our oceans, lakes, rivers, and lands – and harming the ecosystems that are home to invaluable wildlife and marine life,” said Bernadette Jordan, Liberal candidate for South Shore—St. Margarets. “Plastic takes hundreds of years to break down. This pollution will not only outlive us, it will outlive our children and grandchildren. We have to take bold action now to end plastic waste and protect our environment for future generations.”
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s pre-election bailout of Newfoundland and Labrador’s Muskrat Follies hydroelectric mega-boondoggle was announced last week with preposterous “build-back-better” claims about creating “a healthier and more prosperous future” that will help achieve a clean and decarbonized energy system for the province and the country.
