Give a listen. A great episode.
Anyone who thinks the mid-terms will be a reset needs to wake up. MAGA is going full throttle with threat, intimidation, being puppets for Putin, shooting people in the streets.
And the threat to Canada looms large.

“Dutch people cycle an average of 2.6km each per day. If this pattern was replicated worldwide, annual carbon emissions would drop by 686 million tonnes.” #Dutch
Cycling like the Dutch would slash the world’s carbon footprint
If everybody cycled like the Dutch, we could offset the UK or Australia’s entire carbon footprint.

Yesterday, someone wrote to me that truckers need diesel, and nobody cares about the genocide of Ukrainians as long as truckers get their diesel.
I came back to tell him the fantastic news that russia will save American truckers for several groundbreaking hours. But he blocked me. 🤕

🔥If we use public dollars to electrify all these LNG exports, BC’s climate pollution will still increase by ~13 million tonnes.
🔥When the gas is finally burned overseas, add another ~130 million tonnes of climate pollution.
