Researchers say some glaciers in Western Canada and the United States lost 12 per cent of their mass from 2021 to 2024, doubling melt rates compared to the previous decade in a continuation of a concerning global trend.

    Meanwhile “nation building” according to the government means locking in even more CO2 emissions. Why do the Tories and the Liberals hate Canada the place so much?

      I don’t disagree, but we’re also bent over a barrel right now so I think we do need to do something asap.

      Ideally we would have diversified and built a decade ago, but we chose to whine and drag our feet and underinvest in literally everything.

      I really hate how the article is on mobile (obviously not your fault, and not a critique on you), but no. I had not heard of that.

      Thanks for posting, very sad, but good to know.

      This really seems like the worst timeline.

    What will it take for the average person to care. Much less politicians.
