Let’s get something straight about fossil fuel phase-out: renewables needn’t replace all the coal, oil and gas we use today bc most of it is just used to produce and move those fossil fuels around! We only need to replace the useful energy: 37% of what we currently produce 🫨🧵

Such an excellent illustration of how inefficient fossil fuels are and how manufactured our dependency actually is. Close to half of all shipping traffic worldwide is just moving fossil fuels around

Pls @jjhorgan @KatrineConroy just....please act now. This should be illegal. I saw stumps of 1000 year old trees @SaveFairyCreek flagging tape on 2000 year old yellow cedars. It’s like destroying Pantheon or the Sistine Chapel to make a buck. Enough already. #oldgrowth #bcpoli

Oh Canada. Guess which photo is the police response to 20 indigenous elders protesting on their traditional territories to protect their land and climate and which is the police response to 1000 angry mostly white men some of whom have swastikas and confederate flags

Eerie to watch Olympic athletes suffer the heat dome in Paris to global audiences. Sailers wearing ice vests. Beach volleyball players sprayed down with hoses. Misting fountains installed for spectators and athletes. Climate change is the silent spectacle in this year's games.

How much of the country has to burn, how many thousands evacuated and choking on smoke before our country takes the climate emergency seriously and stops expanding oil, gas and LNG projects and starts focusing on keeping people safe? #cdnpoli

Got into Dubai late last night. Opened up my curtains in my hotel this morning to what I now know is the largest single site natural gas power generation facility in the world. Fitting. I am going to stare at this through the haze of pollution for two weeks. Welcome to #cop28.

Horrific heat wave all across Asia. Lethal conditions caused by oil, gas and coal. We have to choose: we can continue building new fossil fuel projects and watch as millions suffer and die. Or we can stop, actually begin a just transition, and build a safer world.

Let me get this straight. Oil companies are raking in billions in profits that they're using to lobby govs into funding more oil projects that will make higher profits (and kill us all) and we’re still inviting them to climate negotiations to be *checks notes* ...realistic??? 🧵

Canada is on fire. Meanwhile, Norway is going ahead with 19 new oil drilling projects, Biden approved Willow, and Trudeau ramps up fracking. Global leaders are approving fossil fuel expansions that will add gas to the fire.

Yes they are disrupting everyday life to force us to address the #ClimateEmergency. My country is literally on 🔥. We need disruptions. No it’s not popular. Neither is choking to death or dying in heat waves. I think history will see them as heroes. @JustStop_Oil

This is the Member of Parliament for Kelowna…while her city is being evacuated as a result of wildfires. Making climate policy a divisive electoral issue while hundreds of thousands are being evacuated due to the climate emergency is beyond tone deaf. It’s terrifying. #cdnpoli

Canadians cannot afford Trudeau's carbon tax. It's time to axe the tax and bring home lower prices.

1.5°C means no new fossil fuel projects. None. Anywhere in the world. Countries investing in new projects while they're here at #COP28 talking about meeting our climate targets is absurd!
