Canada’s trade war anthem

One way to push back against an authoritarian is to mock him. trump is so weak and insecure he is now demanding our respect. So I’m sending him my favorite picture below. Feel free to retweet and send your favorite picture or video to @realDonaldTrump.

Abraham Lincoln got shot in the head and still managed to keep the country together. Franklin Roosevelt ran the entire Second World War from a wheelchair. Eisenhower defeated Hitler and then, just to stay busy, built 48,000 miles of motorway. Kennedy looked at the moon, said “we’ll have that,” and inside a decade they did. Reagan stared down the Soviet Union until it simply gave up and went home. Two hundred and fifty years. Forty-six men. Men who stormed beaches, split atoms, faced down nuclear annihilation over breakfast and then filed sensible paperwork about it afterward. And then, after all of that, the entire accumulated weight of American history, the most consequential democratic experiment the world has ever seen, produced this. A television review. No Mars landing. No cure for cancer. No Soviet empire dissolved before lunch. Just a man in the White House, in the year 2026, informing the internet that a CBS chat show host had no talent. That is what 250 years of American greatness built. America should be deeply, permanently ashamed of itself. If you like what you read, follow Gandalv on Substack: open.substack.com/pub/gandal…

Malawi is one of the poorest countries in the world. A third of children are stunted due to malnutrition. The ag minister declares that GMOs have "health risks" and everyone should eat organic. This is the damage that anti-science misinformation does. malawifreedomnetwork.com/202…

So sorry to hear this news

Wonderful organization with long list of accomplishments - Deepanwita, you should be proud.

It's completely understandable that the Emissions Gap media headlines focus on the bad news: if current policies continue we're looking at a catastrophic 3.1C warming. That means curtains for rainforests, coral, ice caps, unliveable conditions in tropics, superstorms etc. But...

...it's not the most likely outcome, not even close. Current policies won't continue. We're not going to be emitting today's CO2 levels in 2050, which is what drives the 3.1C outcome. As the IEA says, the clean energy transition is fully underway and likely unstoppable. So...

we need to look not at the top of this figure, but the bottom of it - conditional NDCs and all net zero pledges. Are we going to meet net zero? Maybe! So long as we ignore the naysayers trying to block renewables, grid upgrades, nuclear, EVs etc. Warming then is 1.9C not 3.1C.

And could be as low as 1.6 if we're lucky and smart. Yes 1.5C is out of the picture in any realistic scenario. But there is so much left to still fight for, and the fight is only just beginning. Deliver net zero in every country 2050-ish and we've still got a planet to enjoy!
