“A new study has calculated that increasing trees and other vegetation in urban areas by 30% could have prevented more than 1/3rd of all global heat-related deaths between 2000 to 2019. In total, 1.16 million lives may have been saved with more greenery during this 20-year period.” Via @euronews.com

Canadians will vote tomorrow in the most emotional election since 1988. I have my own preference. But I note: no one doubts that the vote will be free and fair - or that the loser will peacefully accept the voters' decision. That may not sound much. It's more than others have.

The first posy in a thimble I made, to lift my mood during the pandemic. The flowers are all real. When humans look at plants (even on a screen as here) we recover from stress 60% more quickly & the relaxation response is triggered in our brains. Zoom in if you're strung out🌿

Cutting down the last standing giants is not only bad for #biodiversity, #climate and people, it is also economically incoherent. Protecting old-growth #forests in the BC interior could generate more than $43 billion over the next century — far more than #logging the land 🌎

Carney made his money by getting scholarships, educating himself, working hard and being a brilliant genius that people found irreplaceable value in. The real question is how did an angry crypto-buffoon like Poilievre become worth $25M by only being an MP?

Reminder as we watch measles rates climb in Canada that this is Poilievre's attitude towards vaccination during a public health emergency. MMR vaccination has long been mandated for health care workers. Would a Poilievre govt ban the MMR mandate in health care during a huge measles outbreak?

Paula White-Cain is a public employee (not laid off), a senior advisor to the WH Faith Office. She says if you send her $1000 before Easter, you’ll get 7 Passover blessings, including an angel assigned to you by God. 9 years ago she sold rocks for $1,144. They were called “resurrection seeds.”

We elected a man everyone who matters in this country knew was an idiot. The bulk of them refused to say so openly and directly — either because they thought he could do something for them or because there are political and journalistic norms against speaking that way.

Not hyperbole: such a ruling would open the door to the return of institutional slavery. If there are no protections against the prospect of being disappeared to a foreign torture prison, then what's protecting you from the prospect of being disappeared to domestic slave labor camps? Nothing.

Europeans don't need ugly American cars. They have governments that are forward-thinking, which provide buses, subways, and high-speed trains, unlike America, which would rather order another aircraft carrier it doesn't need than help its citizens get to work.

Carney asked if, given the Hegseth group chat, Canada has concerns about sharing confidential info with the U.S. Broadly, he says: "my responsibility is to plan for the worst...part of that response is to be more and more Canadian in our defence capabilities...we have to look out for ourselves."

Senators and officials are on TV now stating that Signal was a reasonable choice to have a chat on and the message was not sensitive at all. Dear America, The rest of the world is not buying this shit AT ALL. Thank you, that is all. PS To my own Government: do not tell these people ANYTHING.
