🔥 🇨🇦 🗺️ With Canada warming twice as fast as the global average (Government of Canada 2019), and home to more than a quarter of the world’s boreal forests, the country is experiencing this consequence of global heating firsthand.

2,000,000 Lakes and we can't stop wildfires from burning entire towns
I looked at the global emissions from road transportation, and what reductions could be achieved if all road transport was electric. Our World in Data says "Since the entire transport sector accounts for 21% of total emissions, and road transport accounts for three-quarters of transport emissions, it follows that road transport accounts for 15% of total CO2 emissions."

Well, at least they‘re honest: Screw the planet, screw your children‘s future, our loss-making, billions-burning business model is more important. Quick! More gas! Like a con man creating time pressure. Meanwhile the heat is escalating like never before.

I hate to be the bringer of bad news, but despite all the good news about solar generation rising steeply, global warming projections over this century based on current policies are 2.8°C. Emissions are still increasing by more than 2% per year while they should be reducing by 7% per year to meet 2°C. We still need to cut energy use dramatically to achieve actual meaningful reductions in emissions.
