Bill C-39 doubles down on habitat offsets, in which companies can "build" new habitat elsewhere to compensate for what they destroy in building a mine, a port, a pipeline or other project. The practice is highly contested by scientists. “This is our worst fear,” said biologist Misty MacDuffee.

Offsetting for habitat loss almost never works. Ottawa wants more of it

New policy proposed in Bill C-39 will allow developers to buy credits or pay fees to compensate for the habitats they destroy.

This is why I think ChatGPT is basically evil; this effect has been known since ELIZA and stuff like ChatGPT is available to the public because they know a LOT of people will use it and struggle not to think of it as sapient. They undermine your sense of reality as a core polar of their marketing.

Think about how with deskilling, there's a chance the person affected might go "wait, I used to be able to do this, what the fuck happened to me?" Whereas with such as "no-schooling" kids, the kids never learn how to read in the first place and have *nothing* to compare as a baseline

I mean "enjoy the camps" also tells you this person's limits of political engagement. They will vote against Put You In A Camp because they're a good person, but when the workers show up to build the camp they won't stop it, when the guards show up to take their neighbours away they won't stop it.

underrated part of El-Sayed’s messaging strategy seems to be shaming journalists who ask dumb questions that play into right-wing frames. you can’t answer these in a way that satisfies them, but you can make it embarrassing enough that you impose a toll on asking.

Abdul El-Sayed: "Weijia, with all due respect, this is the third time you've asked about a Twitch streamer ... their whole game is to make us fight culture wars so that we don't pay attention to the fact the president has made $2.2 billion ... "

You need to be able to trust your own judgement before anyone else’s, ultimately—but this means being absolutely rigorous and uncompromising as to your intellectual integrity, and maintaining epistemological humility. Otherwise your judgement means nothing; it takes work to make it trustworthy.

This lie published by Canadian media outlet CBC actively helps the coal, oil and gas industries continue profiting to the tune of billions. It is many times worse than the worst climate denial. The UN report talks about actions that can be taken to stop fossil fuels and lessen the impacts we face

CBC news article headlined "Climate change past the point of no return, UN says" is stamped with a large red X and green text reading "PRO-FOSSIL-FUEL DISINFORMATION," above a silhouetted figure reaching toward a hazy, smoggy city skyline.

True canadian values

four frame comic. first frame shows a Tim Hortons coffee shop from outside. second frame shows Harry Potter themed donuts. Third shows a loon swimming in a lake near some grass. last one shows someone with a dress that reads ''I don't care''. Text reads :
at tim hortons, we care
deeply about true canadian
Values, such as Silent
complicity in genocide.
that's what inspired us
to partner with famous
anti-human rights campaigner
jk rowling to offer you an
all-harry potter menu.
with each purchase of our
mid-tier donuts, your money
goes towards lining the pockets
of someone who uses her wealth
to fight trans rights and hurt
queer communities around
the planet.
you don't personally need
to hate lgbtq+ people to eat at
tim hortons. you just need to not
care enough about their rights,

The most insane thing about all of these food recalls is the people acting shocked it's happening. The FDA lost nearly 4,300 staff in the last two years. Inspectors were already stretched thin before the cuts, and now there's even fewer of them. The scientists who test food for bacteria are gone. Two federal advisory committees that existed specifically to catch foodborne pathogens before they became outbreaks got disbanded.
