Plenty of people have mental disorders and don’t praise Hitler or spread hate.

With emails, social media posts
inundating us this week with
buy, buy, buy,
and influencers posting
beautiful lifestyle photos
that also say
buy, buy, buy,
how different would
things be if society
didn't venerate
capitalism?

Imagine if we were all
inundated with messages
of caring about one another,
through means other than
consuming?
Helping to reduce disease burden,
reduce burden of the
most marginalized in society,
reduce the burden to Mother Earth?

It’s time to call for an Integrity investigation into Doug Ford. He promised Ontario he wouldn’t touch the Greenbelt, but was caught on video promising developers that he WOULD open it up for development. Investigative reporting by Emma McIntosh, Noor Javen & Brendan Kennedy reveals developers bought up chunks of Greenbelt on Ford’s promise and now stand to make bank.

After dumping #Helsinki’s car-centric 1968 plan, the #Finns embarked on a decades-long campaign to slow motor vehicles. “In the 1970s it was normally 50km/h in cities; then in 2000 it went down to 40km/h. Now more than half our urban streets have a 30km/h limit.”

In my research on #wetlands, I’ve been to some spectacular, internationally important places. Canoed the turquoise waters of the Columbia #floodplain Wetlands, hiked to #peatlands nestled in mountain valleys of the upper Bow River clamboured over dunes to #swales in the Long Point World Biosphere Reserve. My ❤️🔥in these wild places but more and more I’m thinking of #urban wetlands. Why? A short 🧵🪡

Very excited to work with colleagues at U Waterloo on the #RISE project to develop a #sustainability scorecard for #residential developments. The #WaterlooWetlandLab will be looking at the #biodiversity and #climatechange mitigation power of #urban #wetlands and #stormwaterPonds.
