Behind closed doors, fossil fuel advocates are trashing carbon capture and storage. @desmog.com obtained audio of Bjorn Lomborg telling a private luncheon CCS is 'not going to happen.' Oil companies only support CCS to get 'a lot of subsidies,' he claimed. www.desmog.com/2025/06/05/c...

"Decarbonized oil" sounds like a joke. Because it is. Even if you slap expensive CCS on the oil drilling/operation, one still releases massive amounts of carbon when you burn the oil in a tailpipe, chimney or smokestack. @mark-carney.bsky.social knows better. Right? www.thestar.com/politics/fed...

We stand with the billions not the billionaires. One would have to save $250,000 a year for 4000 years to become a billionaire. This level of wealth is a danger to democracies and all human rights. Just because you can accumulate wealth doesn’t mean you will do the right thing. #G7 #Canada
