Report shows N.S. government returned $5M in unspent federal funding for land protection The Nova Scotia government returned $5 million in federal funding earmarked for land protection because it did not spend it, and it made no measurable progress in reducing greenhouse gas emissions in the last year. https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/nova-scotia/land-protection-environment-green-energy-greenhouse-gas-emissions-tom-halman-9.7297528?cmp=rss

As wildfires rage, the world is backsliding on climate action. This can’t go on (The Guardian) Even as more than 35,000 wildfires rage across the surface of our world, and as we continue to rewind our planet’s climate so it resembles hotter episodes from its distant past, governments and trading blocs are very deliberately turning away from climate action.

Shell, Chevron, RWE and TotalEnergies all accept that climate change is real, human-caused and serious. The era of corporate climate denial, at least in legal proceedings, is largely over.
