Enjoy the sunshine, have a nice weekend, Free Palestine!

In one of only known cases in N America, someone is facing deportation for climate activism.

On Earth Day, 23-yr old student Zain Ul-Haq who led campus fossil fuel divestment will face deportation from Canada to Pakistan.

How can the climate movement show up for Indigenous solidarity? What critical mistakes has the movement made and how can we move forward in a better way? Grateful to be apart of the Hub’s Climate Organizing Shorts podcast series. Listen to my episode here: open.spotify.com/episode/32Dsqk…

Chilli oil and green onion omelette might take the top spot on the early lunch chart right now

You can’t spin your way around the fact that building new fossil fuel export infrastructure in a climate crisis is irresponsible.

New LNG projects are bad for our future, and David Eby, Josie Osborne and the BC NDP are choosing politics instead.

Today when I woke my child up our huge dog barged into the bed and started licking her armpits. Nina came out of a deep sleep and immediately said “oh, I don’t need any dog deodorant.”

Kids are the best.

The fact there were three spotted owls in the wild when Sarah Cox wrote this book and now only one (or less) when it’s published is a grim symbol of how the BC government is failing this species and biodiversity in general.

It’s unjust that Indigenous Nations have to prove title to their own land to the province, as opposed to the other way around.

That said, props to the Nuchatlaht for taking on this fight and persevering for so long!

If you have a chance to get out and feel that sunshine on your back today I recommend you take it ☀️

These images are gut-wrenching. What Israel is doing is genocide and ethnic cleansing, this is undeniable.

The irony that a university named in honor of the most infamous genocider of the Americas—Columbus—is also ground zero for crushing anti-genocide protests in the twenty-first century should not escape notice.

COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY: NYPD has entered the liberation encampment at the heart of campus and begun to mass arrest students. We stand with youth refusing to leave until their demands are met. All power to the student movement.

People living on the edge of rainforests getting 'prepare for fires to threaten your home' advice in APRIL is a climate change wake-up call for anyone interested in hearing it.

incredibly bad news for folks who like fish and/or non-incinerated forests

BREAKING: lol

Not the greatest photos, but there’s tree-sit and massive banner on the highway into so-called Victoria right now.

Demonstrators are drawing attention to the plight of old-growth forests in BC, and the Walbran Valley in particular:

The defenders of status quo capitalism point to the need for economic growth --but there won't be any growth or stability on a planet that's 5 degree warmer.

We need to let go of this fantasy and build systems of caring for each other instead.

The only way you could make this statement after six months of bombs falling into cities is if you don’t view Palestinians as human.

The entire project of Israel requires not seeing a whole group of people as fellow humans. That’s not redeemable.
