Divest Victoria
@DivestVictoria
Advocating for the City of Victoria to respond to climate change by divesting from fossil fuels, to focus municipal dollars in socially responsible investments.
I say to those who are delaying action on climate change: Look at the blood-red sky and unbreathable air in Australia because of raging forest fires. Our futures are all connected. That is why we must bring the world together and enact a Green New Deal.

My heart goes out to everyone affected by the devastating fires. We’re all proud of the Cdn firefighters & specialists sacrificing & serving. While they fight the fire, we need to fight the #ClimateCrisis that makes these tragedies more frequent-around the world & here at home.
Satellite images from @CopernicusEMS show 🔥 and smoke plumes in NSW and Victoria, Australia 🇦🇺 A fifth team of Canadian firefighters from @CIFFC 🇨🇦 will depart for Victoria @vicemergency on January 6.
AUSTRALIA IS BURNING! AUSTRALIA IS BURNING! AUSTRALIA IS BURNING! AUSTRALIA IS BURNING! AUSTRALIA IS BURNING! AUSTRALIA IS BURNING! AUSTRALIA IS BURNING! Time to dump fossil fuels and #ActOnClimate. #AustraliaBurning #AustraliaFires #ClimateAction #go100re @GretaThunberg
Some people say that we should study to become climate scientists so that we can “solve the climate crisis” But the #climatecrisis has already been solved. We already have all the facts and solutions. All we need to do is to wake up and change. #COP25 #COP25Madrid @GretaThunberg
Young people have taken to the streets calling for ambitious targets, a #GreenNewDeal & for the gov’t to wake up. But the Liberals are pressing snooze, delaying to 2050. #ActNow 🔥End fossil fuel subsidies 🔥Put targets in law 🔥Invest in green housing & transit
Happening now: Climate strikers protesting inside #COP25 with a silent sit-in to get government leaders to WAKE UP. #howdareyou #climatestrike
For the first time ever India is investing more in #solar than in coal. Let's speed it up. We have solutions to the #climate crisis. Let's implement them. Time for a #GreenNewDeal. #ActOnClimate #climate #energy #go100re #PanelsNotPipelines
We clearly should have rented a stadium for our event with the amazing @GretaThunberg and other youth organizers including @xiyebastida @xiuhtezcatl +more I know many were disappointed not get tickets. But why not organize a watch party + plan for the #GlobalClimateStrike?
Watch The Intercept’s @NaomiAKlein, climate activist @GretaThunberg, and other youth leaders discuss the emerging cross-generational, transnational movement that is our best hope for a sustainable planet. Livestream begins Monday, September 9 at 7 p.m. ET. interc.pt/2LtdsKF
Canadians want a government that will take the climate crisis seriously + act This #elxn43 is critical. Who we elect will guide us through 4 of the 11 critical years to act. Let's keep the pressure on. RSVP for a #climatestrike >> globalclimatestrike.net/?source=cadsoc… theconversation.com/canadians-in-e…
This just in: This Tsilhqot'in First Nation has been granted a court-ordered injunction, preventing Taseko Mines from moving forward with preliminary work at the embattled New Prosperity Mine. For background: thenarwhal.ca/this-is-not-ca…
California is requiring all new homes to be built with #solar panels, all public buses to be zero emissions, and is building massive batteries to provide 24 hr #renewableenergy. We have solutions to the #climate crisis, let's implement them. #ActOnClimate #cdnpoli #GreenNewDeal
On September 20th we are asking the adults to join us. This is their chance to help fix the problem that the older generations have created. We don't want you to applaud us or to tell us we're going to save the world. We want you to strike with us in September. @GretaThunberg
Unbelievable, ten thousands of people in front of the Norwegian parliament now, soon «Roaring for the climate». 100k expected. Maybe the largest Norwegian climate protest ever. School strike for climate tooke place earlier today. #klimabrølet #klimabroelet #FridaysForFuture
"It's time to act like the house is on fire, because it is." @GretaThunberg There is no time to waste, there is no planet B. #GreenNewDeal. #ActOnClimate #climate #energy #PanelsNotPipelines #go100re
"Do you have a right to clean water?” B.C. Supreme Court Justice Mark McEwan said. “I’d suggest you don’t … there just is nowhere in the law where you can look and say, ‘there it is — there’s my right. I have a right to clean water.’ " thenarwhal.ca/you-cant-drink… #SummerSizzler
Day 12. We are getting closer to the North American mainland. Rough conditions, but downwind sailing.
Why did a mining company controlled by the Chinese government praise this public investment in Arctic infrastructure? thenarwhal.ca/canadian-taxpa… Read our #SummerSizzler on public funding for a proposed road that would open up mining in the #Arctic
Young People Marching is @Raffi_RC’s tribute to @GretaThunberg & it begins with her trademark clarity: “There’s no middle ground when it comes to the climate & ecological emergency” We all need to step up & stand with these young leaders. #climatestrike raffifoundation.org/news/raffis-re…
This has got to be a mistake... right? Hoping we'll see a correction or retraction from Elections Canada soon. And if not, what else is going to be seen as "partisan activity" just because Maxime Bernier doesn't believe in science? theglobeandmail.com/politics/artic…
