⏰Live on Zoom at 7pm. Three Canadian legends join us in a fireside chat about #ClimateAction. As the #parisagreement turns 5, why aren't we further ahead and what will get us there? With Margaret E Atwood, David Suzuki, and Sheila Watt-Cloutier. 💻tinyurl.com/storiesforclim…


My latest on #plasticpollution and why Canada's single-use #plasticban isn't enough. We need to governments and CEOs to support ambitious #reuse and refill systems. Sarah King Judith Enck Rob Bonta EnvironmentalDefence #cdnpolitics

"There's literally not enough forest for polluting industries to #offset their way out of the crisis," writes Daimen Hardie in @CorporateKnight summer mag, out tomorrow. Dr. Jonathan Foley António Guterres corporateknights.com/climate-and-ca…


I wish everyone on Earth knew how genuinely "off the charts" key planetary trends are right now, and how abnormal and critical it is. Things like atmospheric CO2 fraction, heat extremes on land and ocean, biodiversity loss and extinction rates. All alarms should be going off

The OECD says bans on single-use plastic in 120+ countries aren't doing enough to reduce pollution. Our managing editor Adria Vasil @ecoholicnation writes that Canada needs to #expandtheban on #SingleUsePlastic. #PlasticFreeJuly #cdnpoli EnvironmentalDefence corporateknights.com/waste/canada-b…


After years of failing to deliver on #deforestation pledges, corporations are ramping up for a new round of promises before #COP27, reports @ecoholicnation. But rather than focus on deforestation some advocates are turning their efforts to reforestation. corporateknights.com/climate-and-ca…



"The absence of smoke will never again mean the absence of fire. Somewhere, living things are burning. And it is our job to help put those fires out." Read Gaye Taylor's poetic reflections on living with smoke & #wildfire. #BCWildfire The Energy Mix corporateknights.com/category-clima…

Grateful to run this piece by Gaye Taylor on living with wildfire smoke in Nelson, BC, where my sister's family has lived for two decades. Thanks to my niece Brianne Morris for kindly sharing hazy photos of Nelson, used in this post. 💚


“The most dangerous industry” Important piece from @chrisstprince for Corporate Knights, part of the spring edition’s Plant Power stories, leading up to the magazine’s release next Thursday (with work from Adria Vasil and me!) corporateknights.com/category-food/…


As emissions from #meat rise, companies are playing with the metrics that measure them and making #climate-friendly claims that don’t add up. The latest feature from our Plant Power package in our Spring issue is out today! by Adria Vasil Jessica Scott-Reid, M.A. corporateknights.com/category-food/…

Honoured to share this byline with Adria Vasil, and on such an important topic: Cooking the books: The magical math of 'climate-friendly' meat

If you want to get a good grasp of the recent strategies used by the meat & dairy industry to delay change, confuse the public, and win over the social license to pollute, read this ⬇️ Well done Adria Vasil & Jessica Scott-Reid, M.A. corporateknights.com/category-food/…

Thanks, Nick! And a huge thanks to my awesome co-author Jessica Scott-Reid, M.A.
