Same story, but CBC chooses a headline that actually misrepresents the study and frames climate change as a now irreversible problem. The actual study, as AP notes, describes going over 1.5C and how to get back under that threshold.

Here's a fun little coincidence I noticed: Every Republican Congressmember loudly blaming Canada's forest management policies for this year's unprecedented wildfires (and ignoring climate change) is a massive recipient of fossil fuel funding. Receipts👇

You can't "tough it out" through extreme heat or wildfire smoke. As climate risks grow, workplace protections must grow with them. Keeping workers safe means treating climate change as a health and safety issue. Read @clcpresident.bsky.social's latest op-ed: www.ohscanada.com/opinions/our...

Our climate is changing and the health and safety of workers is on the line
It’s July, and out-of-control wildfires are raging across the country, polluting our air and showing how hot it already is.

People are more drawn to arrogant leaders in an uncertain world. They mistake swagger for strength & skill. Narcissists are unfit to lead. They see power as an opportunity to seize, not a responsibility to serve. Great leaders blend confidence with humility and put their missions above their egos.
