Humans are exterminating life on Earth. We’re wiping out species at a rate of 10,000 to 100,000 annually. We need to do better. Protect nature. #ActOnClimate #deforestation #oceans #biodiversity

🐟 These small populations keep being destroyed, keep disappearing. When you zoom out and look at the cumulative impacts, it’s a huge deal for this threatened species. rmoutlook.com/kananaskis-cou…

cpawssab's tweet card. A newly uncovered, genetically distinct population of bull trout in an area of Kananaskis could be lost forever should a proposed logging operation go ahead, according to a new study.

We’ve noticed pictures being shared online along with some inaccurate information. There are no “unguarded ballot boxes full of votes” in the pictures. The boxes shown are being set up to be used on election day. (1/2)

Why do we talk so much about the #EasternSlopes? One reason: they provide 80% of #Alberta's water. Another reason: Despite how essential these headwaters are to all of us, they continue to be threatened by coal, clear cuts and commercialization. It can't go on like this.

There have been numerous province-wide polls that repeatedly show the overall population of Albertans is ~70% against coal mining in the Eastern Slopes. 3000 people in the Crowsnest Pass aren't the only affected parties who have a say in this. There are 200,000 downstream.

Am I missing something? 72 per cent of the vote was in favour of the new project. globalnews.ca/news/10888536/…
