It passes! So glad to see climate action move forward amid #covid19. Very grateful to the city staff who worked on this, and everyone who wrote to Council in support.

Tomorrow Council will vote on new buildings 3 stories and under being required to have zero-emission (no gas) heating and hot water.
It may sound nerdy, but it's a SUPER important change. Here's why... 👇🏾

Just ordered my copies of “A Forest in the City” by the marvelous @AndreaPCurtis from @pfbvan. Can’t wait to share it with all my favourite people, little and big.
Today is the day: @andreapcurtis virtually launches her latest kids’ book “A Forest in the City.” Buy it today @typebooks (right now: 416-366-8973, delivery@typebooks.ca) and the wind will grab one from a tree and deliver a signed copy to your west end door. Crazy, eh!?! Yippeee!

Much respect to Dr. Henry, @adriandix and the legions of staff working the front lines of containing this. It's extremely stressful to be carrying the workload and the responsibility of all of our safety in the face of a lot of unknowns. 🙏

Thank you, @CityofVancouver and @c40cities for hosting the 2020 @Women4Climate Mentorship Program. It was a pleasure to help kick it off today. Can't wait to see the great work this group does together! #women4climate

Make politicians show up in your community by being vocal about your key issues, vote and then relentlessly hold their feet to the fire b/w elections. Democracy is a muscle we need to exercise year round. @aplaceforfood supports communities to make noise. #civicengagementmatters

Wise words from @njsaul “the key to getting more Canadians invested in our political process is not magic. We have to fight to make politics relevant, understandable, and offer inclusive, nonjudgmental opportunities to take part.” @aplaceforfood read more link.medium.com/jayH73jNXZ

It's it ok to retweet this without seeming like a doofus?
Thanks a ton, @DantonsHead

Man oh Mann, this is an extraordinary achievement. Hugely rich and thought provoking, not least in its reading of ‘the sea-green Incorruptible’.

This column has not made me a popular columnist today among a swath of the populace. But it needed to be said: Conservative lies about the carbon tax need to be called out. #cdnpoli theglobeandmail.com/opinion/…

This is another one of those situations where the critics are clearly smarter than the author. Very grateful for their time and wisdom.

ICYMI My/@aplaceforfood's thoughts on the new Canada Food Guide. To make it truly revolutionary, let's ensure everyone can eat it. Why "manage" poverty when it's within our grasp to end it. We all benefit when no one is left behind: macleans.ca/society/health/t… #foodisabasichumanright

So proud of my awesome partner @AndreaPCurtis on her new book “Eat This!” coming out March 2018. It’s one of TWO books (“Big Water” is the other) she’s got hitting the shelves in the new year. Book launch dates to be announced soon. See you there. #hugetalent #bestfriend #excited

Publishing is weird. It takes so long, then it's over in a minute. So I'm glad these beautiful ARCs (cover by extraordinary @JacquiOakley) for my new YA novel #BigWater are swimming w the readers, librarians & reviewers for a few months before it launches @orcabook #Spring2018
