This bee farm needs help

Sylvia,
For decades, Guillermo and Andrea have kept rare stingless bees on their small farm in rural Costa Rica, making a basic living selling honey from the hives.
But now their bees are under attack: half their hives have been lost to poison pesticides sprayed by neighbouring mega-farms growing crops like pineapple for mass export.
Guillermo and Andrea are desperate and asking for help. Months ago, they started legal proceedings for an injunction, but the mega-farmers are politically powerful, and local authorities don’t care about pollinator conservation, telling them, “we don’t know anything about bees.”
There are capable lawyers that could stand up for their family, but they simply can’t afford it.
We’ve fought battles like this before. If enough of...

Before the election, right-wing leadership in both the House and Senate declared their intentions to hold the debt ceiling hostage to demand cuts to Social Security and Medicare benefits.
This would be a disaster. Failure to increase the debt ceiling would wreck the global economy, producing a recession or even depression, and would weaken America’s standing in the world.
Failure to increase the debt ceiling would not do anything to limit future spending, it would simply...

Your place for
news and action Saturday January 14, 2023 Wet’suwet’en chief Tsebesa has been trying to access her territory to monitor Coastal GasLink construction. But for months, she’s been blocked by the company’s security guards.
Left with no other choice, this week Tsebesa flew in by helicopter – and her worst fears were confirmed. Pipeline crews have dug up Lho Kwa (the Clore River) with excavators, destroying salmon spawning habitat and smothering fish eggs downstream with sediment.
Photos released by the David Suzuki Foundation show Coastal GasLink dug a deep pool for pumps to divert the river, so excavators can dig a trench for the pipeline. They did all this with nothing to catch sediment or...

Corporate water pollution, extraction, and privatization is depleting our most precious resource. But we are fighting back to save our water.

Sylvia,
Mining companies are turning life-sustaining rivers into toxic cesspools. Bottled water companies are draining away water from drought-stricken communities. Private water companies are buying up public water works and then jacking up prices.
Corporations around the world are trying to turn safe, clean water into a commodity for the wealthiest few. But together we can fight back to ensure that corporations are forced to treat water as a precious resource for all.

A climate book recommendation for you

Friends,
We know we need to win big, transformative changes to truly tackle the climate crisis and achieve an energy transition that leaves no one behind.
To do that, it's crucial to build a shared vision for what a just transition looks like and how we can get there from the oil-soaked Canada we currently live in. That’s why I'm so excited to share a new book some of our favourite climate thinkers and doers are launching this month!
The End of This World: Climate Justice in So-Called Canada is a joint vision from six climate thinkers and organizers to lay out a pathway for what a just transition off oil and gas looks like and how we build a caring economy that provides social support for all, redistributes wealth, and ensures stolen land is rightfully reclaimed under the jurisdiction and sovereignty of Indigenous peoples.
You can pre-order your copy of the book The End of This World which comes out January 17 here.
The collective behind this book is also hosting a virtual reading and conversation on January 31st. Here are all the details:

PAOV — It’s been three years since Ukraine International Airlines Flight 752 was shot down near Tehran. There were 176 passengers and crew onboard, including 55 Canadian citizens and 30 permanent residents. No one survived the disaster. Petition starter Hamed lost his wife and nine-year-old daughter, and is still waiting for answers. He says: “They atrociously opened fire at innocent children, women and men, and shot the aircraft twice to ensure it would be destroyed.” Sign Hamed’s petition and join over 155,000 people demanding answers.

Paov,
There is change on the horizon.
This week, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, U.S. President Joe Biden, and Mexico’s President Andrés Manuel López Obrador are all coming together at the North America Summit to discuss a range of topics from supply chains to immigration and energy.
This is the first time the three leaders have met since 2021, and we need to make sure climate justice is on top of the agenda. We’re working with our colleagues in the U.S. to put pressure on our leaders to enact real climate solutions and support just immigration policy — and we need your help to make as big of an impact as possible.
