@chris @avilewis Canadians can't vote for a PM though unless they are in the right five ridings. All we can do is vote for the best MP in our riding, then push them to remember that they run the country and the PM is their servant not their boss.

@scientific_american "641 unknown objects"?Must be the aliens then i guess....

Investment firms are buying "water-rich" agricultural land in states like Arizona and Colorado. They aren't necessarily interested in farming; they are interested in the senior water rights attached to the deed

Now you see me smiling, standing in such a beautiful place, and you might ask what is making me smile. I think I can just stay quiet and let nature speak for itself. The rich land, the crops growing in it, and the cool #environment will give you the real and satisfying answer. What do you think? #OrganicFarming #foodsecurity #sustainablefarming #NL #mastodon

Trump Exempted Some of the Nation’s Biggest Polluters From Air Quality Rules. All It Took Was an Email.#environmenthttps://www.propublica.org/article/clean-air-act-exemptions-trump-emails

Mea culpa. I have pointed out in the past that. Canada's forests, rather than being a CO2 sink are now producing more GHG's than they are "fixing" because of forest fires. But I am wrong, any gases released from a tree burn is just recycled gases taken out of the atmosphere as it grew - basically a zero sum. That which it used to grow is now returned. It's the same idea behind bio-fuels. The culprit in global warming is the amount of carbon collected over hundreds of millions of years released as carbon dioxide over the last 100 years …#environment #GlobalWarming #forestfire

"During #Trump’s second term, the number of peer-reviewed studies authored by U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (#EPA) scientists has dramatically declined…[reflecting] a steep reduction in the scientific research being conducted at EPA.
