Fact: Taking a BC Ferry from Metro Vancouver to Vancouver Island is a High CO2 experience, though if it's a full ferry, it's not terrible (~5kgCO2/passenger)
By 2031, BC Ferries will have replaced 18 ferries (big and small!) in 15 years, and nearly all will be 100% electric-ready.
They just announced they're doing the big ships next.
"Built with diesel-battery hybrid propulsion systems and designed with the capability to operate on full electric power in future, the NMVs are expected to significantly reduce greenhouse gas emissions, improve fuel efficiency, and lower underwater radiated noise to better protect marine life. With greater capacity than the vessels they replace, the NMVs will offer more space for vehicles and passengers and upgraded amenities, supporting a more reliable and comfortable travel experience.”
The age of fossil fuels is ending. Any politician or lobbyist who says otherwise is either not paying attention, or bought.

it's all carbon tax carbon tax carbon tax... god these guys couldn’t have an original idea if one smacked them over the head.

Andrew Sheer is currently spinning a conspiracy theory that “ties” Carney while in the UK to lobbying for “rules" to "force" aviation companies to use "non-conventional" fuel and then “he invests in that company and makes millions”.
And that, folks, is how the Conservatives are going to tie "New World Order" conspiracies to any kind of climate action, even very weak action like Sustainable Airline Fuel.
God I hate this guy's gross smile.

It's incredible that the Alberta Premier continues to claim a pipeline to the Northwest (Prince Rupert) is possible. Premier Eby was not there because he was in the middle of a pre-planned trip to Asia (Japan, South Korea, Malaysia). And he said today there won't be any reconsideration of another oil pipeline, "decarbonzed" or not. And Japan has no interest in heavy oil anyway.
"But Eby continued to pour cold water on other premiers' talk of building another oil pipeline across B.C. to the coast, saying there is already the taxpayer-owned Trans Mountain Pipeline, which is not being used to full capacity.
He added that the Japanese don't want heavy oil and thermal coal. And he has not altered his stance against lifting the heavy oil tanker ban on B.C.'s North Coast.”

Today in the Capitalist Climate Catastrophe, Scott Moe, chief apologist of Saskatchewan (and Premier) for the Fossil Fuel criminals, wants a "National Firefighting Force”.
(note: I would not be opposed to this... but the fact this asshole is suggesting it while he demands more help getting his world-burning fossil fuels out of the ground is just too much.)

“An assessment of updated National Climate and Energy Plans (NECPs) shows the EU is on course to achieve a 54 per cent emissions reduction by 2030 - just one per cent shy of its legally binding 55 per cent target.”
Fun fact, if Canada joined the EU it would probably hurt it from an emissions reduction perspective because Oil and Gas.
“It attributed the progress towards the 2030 goal to action in the energy sector, with renewables covering 24 per cent of energy consumption in the EU in 2023. Most member states are now aligned with the target of reaching a share of 42.5 per cent by 2030, according to the Commission.”
Weird how they don’t mention LNG as being a reason why Europe has been able to meet its goals. Almost like renewables are essentially the only way to decarbonize the industry, just like the scientists say it is.
“States have a legal obligation to deliver climate action, and the Commission has a clear responsibility to uphold and enforce EU law in response.”
Imagine Danielle Smith whining about unfair laws…
Wonder how much #bclmg Europe will be asking for…

Today in “silly billboards in my community”. The first is by the very “truthful” (/s) people at LNGfacts.ca. Of course, the word "LNGfacts" does not appear anywhere in the dictionary because it's made up nonsense. Just like the "fact" that LNG “makes Canada stronger”... like we're going to win the war in Ukraine with our LNG or fend off #TheAmericanFascist. (Note: LNG is a tool of fascists not the other way around)
This billboard used to say “BC LNG WILL REDUCE GLOBAL EMISSIONS”... with a link to ‘bclnghelps.ca' but that was so clearly a lie that they were forced by the courts to remove it and delete their website, but I made a website instead in their honour called: bclngburns.ca
Back to today's billbboard though... Here's a fact from February 2025: “European LNG imports fell by 19% in 2024 as gas consumption reached an 11-year low, thanks, in part, to renewable energy additions.” (#BCPoli #BCLNG #ClimateAction #ClimateEmergency #ExtinctionRebellion #LNG #NaturalGas #Europe #EU #Ukraine #Russia
