"It's a hearts & minds thing. #BigOil has always understood that & we'd better get smart about it fast. As for talking about #ClimateChange, it wasn't even the right time to talk about it during the #LAWildfires, which came with $250 billion worth of damages. That's if money's all you care about."

"It never had to be this way & all of it remains entirely fixable by a well-informed populace even now. That means rooting out things like foreign ownership of our national media & the indoctrination of our children by the now largely foreign-owned big oil companies. It's a hearts and minds thing."
Oil companies create ‘smokescreen’ to enable exploration off Brazil’s Amazon coast
Oil companies are covertly positioning to extract oil from the entire mouth of the Amazon River, an investigation shows. Drilling in this ecologically sensitive region could impact traditional communities, and nature reserves.
"I get it. It's a lot. But for the record the 'a lot' was predicted. #ClimateChange was always going to keep pounding away at us while other global dangers rose & pounded away too, each making the other worse. Welcome to the not-so-great feedback loop, population you & everybody else. So now what?"

"Folks told us #Covid just wasn't the time to talk #ClimateChange & to be sure a lot of climate organizations & the most progress we'd ever seen just died on the vine during that time. Last year it was #Housing & #Inequality. This year it's an openly covetous, belligerent & reckless America."
"Provincial governments are primarily responsible for education but the federal government can play a role too, particularly when an education topic is deemed in the national interest. The need to urgently address #ClimateChange is absolutely in the national interest & in that of our children."

CBCFirst Nation launches legal action over Alberta oilsands cleanup fund | CBC NewsThe Athabasca Chipewyan First Nation says the provincial government renewed the rules for the Mine Financial Security Program without needed changes, and ignored concerns about infringement on their Treaty rights.
"The federal government is coming out with a framework on environmental learning which needs best practices and principles & to be aligned with our treaty obligations under the #ParisAgreement to limit warming to 1.5, placing the urgent need to transition away from fossil fuels in the framework."
Traitorous pseudo-Canadian, Danielle Smith, demands “unfettered” access to pipelines going west, east and north. She has plans to tighten the “Alberta Sovereignty within a United Canada Act” so federal employees will not be able to gather data on Alberta's carbon emissions. #bigoil #daniellesmith #canada #alberta #tarsands #pollution #globalwarming https://www.thestar.com/opinion/contributors/danielle-smith-sends-message-that-carney-will-win-allowing-her-to-continue-undermining-canada/article_5ec556c5-e6f0-45ec-8f80-cccc3df81bce.html

Dear @canada-cbcnews
Why do you keep saying "the energy sector, when you mean "the oil and gas sector".
Oil and gas is only a part of the energy sector and has to be a rapidly declining part.
"Just as we wouldn't want #BigTobacco sponsoring events at our schools, #BigOil shouldn't be either. There needs to be a ban on #FossilFuels sponsorship & provincial governments need to step up & fund the #ClimateChange education our kids deserve."

Trump’s new 10% universal tariffs will not apply to many fossil fuel products in sign of his fealty, advocates say..#Trump..#BigOil..#tariffs https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/apr/04/trump-exempts-big-oil-donors-from-tariffs

"#ForOurKids has a number of actions folks can take at the school board, provincial & federal levels of government. At school boards we ask them to establish policies to vet resources to exclude organizations that have a conflict of interest like #FossilFuel industry funding."
