The next 4 years of Conservative majority will be a nightmare for public schools.
Cuts in funding, persecution of minorities, selling out to big-tech.
We will continue the fight.

The participants demanded climate justice and actionable measures from politicians to address the environmental issues and climate change. The message is particularly significant since the Canadian federal election is happening in October 2019

“In a normal park, we estimated there were about 30 species of wild bees,” says Jens Ulrich, a former University of British Columbia (UBC) PhD student who worked with the city between 2021 and 2024 to study the meadows’ ability to attract wild #bees and hoverflies.
“In a park with a meadow, we saw that number jump up to something around 60 species per park – per year.”

That’s why they’ve created Urban Future Walks: a public experience that invites participants to explore sustainability initiatives across downtown Vancouver while helping researchers learn how people respond to different forms of engagement

I'm going to need help to find free or very low cost, safe accommodations for me & my brother, when Mom starts getting surgeries in Vancouver. That likely won't be until next year because liver transplants aren't as easy as kidney transplants.
Please boost. Thanks.

Mobi bikes make 2.4 trips per day, & that it takes 18 bikes to remove tailpipe emissions from one gas-powered car
Through this, they found that 54% of Vancouver bike share trips would have otherwise been done in a car, reducing about 298 tonnes of carbon dioxide per year
That’s pretty good, but if those bikes were used eight times a day, it would only take five bikes for every one fossil fuel car & reduce tailpipe emissions by more than 3%

They've made us all monsters.
How does this not crush everyone else too?

Yes.
And frankly, there is something monstrously wrong with anyone who has 1+ living children, of any age, who are not terrified for all Palestinians.
At the very least, out of fear, how can we have such a lack of empathy.
How can we not be crushed by the indifference, the evil of indifference, of casual genocide.

Are there any internet providers in #Vancouver that support #IPv6?
My ISP seems to be stuck in "Coming soon" state, and I can't seem to find any documentation or marketing for other providers that say they provide IPv6... maybe I am not looking hard enough 😂
