Reporting from #COP26, I spoke with Indigenous organizers for @voguemagazine, whose demands to keep fossil fuels in the ground, for Indigenous rights and a just transition are essential to keep rising temperatures from exceeding 1.5'C vogue.com/article/what-i…

A Canadian company is the only one in the world making a special part for Israeli warplanes bombing Palestinians. In Europe, the existence of such a sole-source supplier of F-35 parts has become “vital” to a legal attempt to halt Dutch exports to Israel. breachmedia.ca/israeli-warpla…

"While the province fumbles on its commitments, old growth falls; forest defenders are arrested; mills close; and ecosystems are pushed further toward the brink of collapse by major timber companies." Great op-ed by @talltegan 👏 nationalobserver.com/2024/07/16/opi…

"A 2021 study predicted that ecosystem collapse in B.C.’s interior rainforest is imminent in the next nine to 18 years. The province’s own research shows almost 2,000 other species are at risk of disappearing." Stunning reporting again by @zoeyunker thetyee.ca/News/2024/09/1…

Ta-Nehisi Coates on DNC: “Despite the appeals of Palestinian American delegates and activists, no Palestinian American is scheduled to address the convention from the main stage. I suspect this is because of what such a speaker might feel compelled to say” vanityfair.com/news/story/dnc…

"The idea that sounds can indicate the health of our world emerged years ago with Rachel Carson’s book Silent Spring. In the 1960s, she implored readers to imagine a world made quieter by the “grim specter” of widely used pesticides.
