Climate - truthful information about climate, related activism and politics.

Yeah I unfortunately live in Alberta and many of us are absolutely embarrassed by our provincial leadership. We almost voted them out in May, but we are still working through the problem of many old voters have always just blindly voted Conservative and never critically analyzed what was going on. As someone else said, these are not the same Conservatives we have always had and the Wildrose party merger put extremists in charge of the party. I'm hoping we can ride out these 4 years hopefully more or less in one piece and get these guys out later. The fact that they are trying to sneakily move us to private health care though and are actively doing things to drive young people away, like grossly inflating house prices to drive up boomers returns on their properties, makes me skeptical that I will still be living here come next election. Sadly this does not boad well for renewables in this province forsure and we will likely be living in denial that oil and gas will always be a dependable industry.
