"The federal government is coming out with a framework on environmental learning which needs best practices and principles & to be aligned with our treaty obligations under the #ParisAgreement to limit warming to 1.5, placing the urgent need to transition away from fossil fuels in the framework."

#ClimateChange #EnergyTransition - Ember Global Electricity Review 2025 - "Conclusion: Clean power poised to begin the era of fossil fuel decline. In a world of higher electricity demand growth, clean electricity is stepping up to the challenge. Spearheaded by exponential solar expansion, clean power is set to grow faster than demand, marking the start of a permanent decline in fossil generation." - Ember is an energy think tank that aims to accelerate the clean energy transition with data and policy ember-energy.org/latest-insigh

EmberGlobal Electricity Review 2025 | EmberRecord renewables growth led by solar helped push clean power past 40% of global electricity in 2024, but heatwave-related demand spikes led to a small increase in fossil generation.

The really, really good news about the #tariff mayhem is that it will supercharge the #energytransition: While it is regrettable that the economy will suffer, everybody with a functioning pocket calculator (so alas, not everybody-everybody, ha) will have to admit that the only suitable way forward with falling prices for #solar and #wind and (most notably!) #batteries is to double down on #renewables. So either way forward will lead to #change - it's just a question what countries will lead it.

"#ForOurKids has a number of actions folks can take at the school board, provincial & federal levels of government. At school boards we ask them to establish policies to vet resources to exclude organizations that have a conflict of interest like #FossilFuel industry funding."

"It's important to remember: they don't just sow doubt about #ClimateChange & the science. They undermine the political will needed to address it, they go directly after climate policy. They're doing this in our schools, which is horrifying & they're lobbying intensively right now in government."

"The 'global science communications action plan' was introduced at a meeting by the #AmericanPetroleumInstitute which directly says 'we achieve victory when the average citizen recognizes there are uncertainties about climate science' then lays out a plan including getting into the education system."

"Doing the research, looking at the long history of disinformation it was really chilling to read reports from climate science teams that were reporting to the #FossilFuels industry that if we continue with these emissions & pumping CO2 into the atmosphere, it threatens global habitability!"
