Canada in Bali: A National Embarassment

Apparently we've teamed up (unofficially, of course) with the US and Japan to put out the message that "economic growth is just as valuable as the environment." The same group of countries is working against any kind of short-term targets - why do tomorrow what you can put off till the day after that? This is not a Canada that I can feel proud about, this is a shameful country willing to put short-term gain in the form of oil revenue ahead of the long-term danger of climate change.

Another Busted Conservative Environmental Scheme

It looks like the rebates on new, fuel efficient cars aren't really making much of a difference. I've said before that this government is at best interested in half-measure that it hopes will placate moderate voters, and here we are again.

Canada's n00b Government fails on climate change

According to an article in the Star, an Environment Canada panel has given Harper's plan a failing grade. Harper and his government are half-assing this, just as though they were school children made to do over an inadequate project (remember their first crack at this with Rona?) It appears that they stitched together the bare minimum and now they've been caught at it again. I suspect that Harper would rather not deal with "so-called" greenhouse gases and he's irritated that it continues to be an issue.
