Notre climat change : cela menace la prospérité des humains et des nombreux animaux, plantes et insectes qui peuplent notre planète. La Fondation Sierra Club Canada travaille à l’échelle locale et à l’échelle nationale pour tenter de réduire les gaz à effet de serre et pour promouvoir des pratiques énergétiques durables.
Update to my original blog: In the 24 hours after #ThroneSpeech2020, promising 1 Million #climate jobs , Minister of Natural Resources Seamus O'Regan has announced $320 Million for Newfoundland and Labrador #oilandgas subsidies.
We are heartbroken to learn that the dead right whale found off New Jersey this week is actually the first born calf of the 2019/2020 season, and was the very first calf of right whale #3560.
From initial observations, it appears this calf died as a result of propeller and trauma injuries from two separate vessel strikes. According to NOAA, the first injuries were to his head and chest, and the second – and likely fatal injury – was to his tail stock.
On Wednesday afternoon, we received the decision from the federal court that, while our case questioning the regulation exempting exploratory drilling from impact assessment was serious enough to warrant judicial review, the exemption itself could come into force even as we continue to pursue the case.

I can see it now: the vast blue horizon where the sky meets the ocean, the rolling waves as water ebbs and flows below, and in the distance a distinct v-shaped plume of mist. Can you see it? Can you hear it? The powerful exhale of the right whales coming home.
This is the first line in a message being sent by emergency services to those who refuse to leave their homes as the Australian bushfires approach.

Canadians have made it clear they want action on the environment, and Monday will be the day to have your say about who will lead our country on the single most important issue of our time.
Don’t stay home.
Some helpful FYI's:
The Objiway community of Eabametoong and Cree of Nestantaga in northern Ontario have found themselves on the front lines to avert catastrophe from climate change. They are anticipating a three-year struggle to oppose two new roads planned to accommodate mines in what has become known as Ontario’s Ring of Fire. The battle takes place via co-ordinated federal and provincial Environmental Assessments (EAs).
