By Hugh Holland<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

We are seeing more and more weird weather. September 5 was a beautiful day at 26\u00b0. On September 6, the temp dropped to a cold and rainy 15\u00b0. September 7 brought 5\u00b0 and light snow to North Bay, and by September 12, we had a 27\u00b0 heatwave. We are all in this together. According to the Weather Channel, the first system originated from a hurricane in the South China Sea and then a hurricane in Louisiana. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The weather has always been changing, but too many people now seem oblivious to the fact that emission-driven extreme weather events are much more frequent and severe than ever before. 2023 and 2024 had the highest air and ocean temperatures ever recorded, with melting glaciers and sea ice, rising sea levels bringing more damaging coastal storm surges, more violent ocean-based windstorms, and more droughts and wildfires in Canada and around the world.  Including the Jasper wildfire, the Calgary hailstorm, and the flooding in Toronto and Montreal, 2024 is on track to be the costliest year on record for climate disasters in Canada, that are now routinely exceeding $5 billion per year, destroying housing stock, and affecting mental health.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAll of humanity could share a prosperous, equitable future but the space for development is rapidly shrinking under pressure from a wealthy minority of ultra-consumers,” says a new groundbreaking study. \u201cConsumerism and the climate crisis threaten an equitable future for humanity,\u201d says a report by the Earth Commission, an international team of leading scientists. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cGrowing environmental degradation and climate instability have pushed the Earth beyond a series of safe planetary boundaries,\u201d say the authors from the Earth Commission, \u201cBut it still remains possible to carve out a \u201csafe and just space\u201d that would enable everyone to thrive.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That outcome would depend on a transformation of global politics, economics and society to ensure a fairer distribution of resources, a rapid phase-out of fossil fuels, and the widespread adoption of low-carbon, sustainable technologies and lifestyles, it said.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In his latest television series, director Thomas Vinterberg imagines his home country of Denmark shutting down due to rising sea waters, with the entire population forced to flee.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Families Like Ours,” which premiered at the Venice, Italy Film Festival, is set in the near future. The Netherlands has already vanished beneath the waves and Danish leaders are determined to save the lives of their own people, ordering a mass evacuation.  Families are split and friends become separated as some six million Danes scramble to obtain documents to relocate to European countries with higher ground. His team consulted climate scientists and the Danish Ministry of Foreign Affairs as they tried to portray as realistically as possible what could happen in his country.   <\/p>\n\n\n\n

“This show is primarily about human beings, and how we cope with crisis,” said Vinterberg. This feeling of being on the Titanic, with the water pouring into the second and third-class cabins, but in first class, we just keep on eating and playing violins. We don’t want to hear it.” “We don’t want to change, we’re unable to change,” he said.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The same thing is happening here in Canada. Even though rapidly advancing Climate Change is increasingly recognized as the biggest existential threat to Canada and the world, too many of those who have yet to be personally affected chose to ignore the fact that droughts, wildfires, tornadoes, storm surges etc. inflate the cost of food, and energy, and is driving up the cost of building and repairing climate-robust houses, high-rise buildings, and infrastructure.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Add to that the effects of a pandemic, conflicts, and wars and we should understand that governments everywhere have been overwhelmed with an unprecedented list of challenges for which there are no magic or easy solutions. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lest we forget, in 2016, the federal government\u2019s bipartisan Advisory Panel on Economic Growth recommended that to attain a more independent and sustainable economy, Canada should pursue a strategy to reach a population of 100 million people by 2100, mainly through a modest increase in annual immigration. Then COVID, and Russia\u2019s attack on Ukraine disrupted that planning with COVID-related deaths, early retirements from the medical field, and 200,000 unexpected Ukrainian refugees arriving in Canada. Immigration and housing got out of balance, but corrections are now underway at the federal, provincial and municipal levels. All three have large staffs involved.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, things are improving, and the Bank of Canada has already cut the inflation-fighting prime rate three times this year. For 2025, the International Monetary Fund is projecting Canada will be the fastest growing economy among the G7 economies. The U.S. economy will rank second at 1.9 per cent and the U.K. third at 1.5 per cent growth next year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An orderly transition over the next twenty years to a future with a sustainable environment will benefit everyone. Considering Canada\u2019s three biggest sources of heat-trapping emissions are #1. oil and gas production at 26%, #2. Transportation at 25%, and #3. Building heating at 13%, what are the three most important things we can do as responsible citizens to ensure a healthy and sustainable climate and economic future for Canada?  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

#1. Making your next vehicle a zero-emission and energy-efficient electric vehicle \u201cdoubles your impact\u201d by reducing emissions from both producing gasoline and from burning it. The initial price of an EV is still a bit higher, but when energy and maintenance costs are considered, EVs provide substantial net savings compared to gasoline and even hybrid vehicles.    <\/p>\n\n\n\n

#2. When our home heating system needs to be replaced, we can choose a dual-fuel heat pump with gas back-up if you are concerned about the very few days below -30\u00b0 C.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

#3. Understand that we are not alone. Today\u2019s unusual but improving economic situation is also being experienced by peer countries as well as Canada. Understand that sustainable economics are now almost entirely dependent on having a sustainable environment. Respect experts in these complicated fields. Take advantage of the rare opportunity to engage Mark Carney, a loyal Canadian whose international experience and credentials are unmatched in those key areas.  And vote for the party with the most credible combination of economic and environmental policies for all of us.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n
