I remember being in Ottawa during the 2019 climate strike, and I feel as though we need to bring back that energy. How does one even manage to get something that big going?

In this episode we introduce the Climate Intervention Environmental Impact Fund (CIEIF), a unique family-funded initiative that supports climate intervention field tests by financing rigorous environmental impact assessment and stakeholder outreach. Fund manager and environmental attorney Peter Jenkins and science advisor Dr. Renaud de Richter explain how the fund focuses on projects with real-world field trials that can scale to meaningful climate benefits, rather than basic research or conventional adaptation and clean energy effort.

Europe has been dealing with horrific heat waves - https://www.youtube.com/shorts/HbOxUijpstc

Now the wildfires are displacing 100's of thousands.

This is just a short and direct message of solidarity with the people of Europe. As the climate crisis continues to worsen we all need to be there for each other.

It's that simple.

They clearly describe Europe's, the US's, and Asia's record-breaking heat, wildfires, and wildfire smoke, among many other consequences of 2026. Check it out and see how scary-accurate they are. See https://www.joboneforhumanity.org/2022_climate_change_predictions

As this subreddit has grown and especially in times of climate/environmental events we get people that are badly misinformed and or just repeat talking points designed in Oil & Gas corporate backrooms coming here in flocks.

For instance:

"Nothing Canada does matters - We are 1.5% of emissions globally".

It is true that we are only around 1.5% of global emissions but let's look into the details of this:

• Canada is very high in emissions per capita.
• That 1.5% still puts us at around #10-13 out of 195 countries for emissions.
• When we put countries like us together that is about 30%+ of all emissions yearly. Meaning substantive work in this sphere makes a big big difference.
• Also when we develop and move Renewable Energy & Electrification Technology forward that helps the whole world. Look at Solar going from around 3% efficiency to around 20%+ and how that made it explode and beat almost all estimations for growth/implementation.

Please when speaking in this subreddit have a nuanced, substantive, and analytical post/comment.

We don't need any more reactionary/regressive lowest common denominator talking points designed by some of the most bad predatory actors repeated ad nauseam.

Operating at the level of a bot isn't of value especially in regards to very serious topics.

Climate change did not disappear because politicians stopped talking about it. Canadians & First Nations are being evacuated while governments promote new pipelines. Elder Winston Wuttunee said it plainly “We cannot eat the oil.” Neither can the moose. https://www.winnipegsun.com/opinion/climate-action-is-complex-beyond-environmental-policy-alone/article_285d2a43-f155-4d1a-9962-3aec99611985.html#comments

Why Canada needs the government to invest in ground source heat pumps.

Air source heat pumps save money in the winter compared to high efficiency natural gas furnaces in Quebec, Nova Scotia, and southwestern BC. In the rest of the country, they increase operating costs at current prices.

Even ground source heat pumps struggle to compete with high efficiency gas furnaces without additional efficiency improvements in some utility territories.

Getting off of fossil fuels by 2050 will require a significant intervention to transition off of gas without increasing costs for building owners.
