Happy birthday to us! It was one year ago today that EnviroWatch NL officially launched. Since then, it's been online forums, media interviews, working with partners...Lots of work done, more to come. Join us! #nlpoli

Major salmon die-off at GriegSeafoodBC fish farm #aquaculture coastreporter.net/highlights/mas…

A major setback on the BC coast as the feds bow to pressure from the global aquaculture and extend fish farm operations by five years. Will there be any wild salmon left by then? canada.ca/en/fisheries-o…

We concur with Star Trek star. vancouver.citynews.ca/2024/06/20/can…

NLers would not be able to get a coffee at Tim's without temporary foreign workers, so welcome! But they would also build those wind energy projects, bringing hundreds of new ppl, more strain on housing...And this is a good thing? cbc.ca/news/canada/ca…

Labour Min Seamus O'Regan Jr didn't understand legally required enviro review before endorsing World Energy GH2. He didn't understand right-to-strike before ordering WestJet mechanics back to work. On 2nd he was corrected by Canada Labour Board. This is NL's senior rep in fdl cabinet

On the EnviroWatch NL podcast, Robert and Glenn question the quality of the Government of Newfoundland & Labrador vetting project for wind energy projects that ended up with Ravi Sood as one of the winning bidders. youtube.com/watch?v=lNpXCs…

Everwind gets a rough ride on the Burin Peninsula. All across the province, citizens are saying no to these mammoth wind energy developments. Are you listening, Government of Newfoundland & Labrador ? ntv.ca/everwind-fuels…

You wonder where they would house all the construction workers needed to put up those wind turbines. Man camps?

Can't say we were surprised but it's still a punch in the gut to see Government of Newfoundland & Labrador choose John Risley's wind adventure over environmental protection. A sad day for NL. #nlpoli cbc.ca/news/canada/ne…

Item is from Australia, but much of data relevant here -- e.g. a 50% increase in construction costs since COVID caused by supply chain issues. Add the tech inefficiency of wind to hydrogen and you understand why World Energy GH2 has yet to sign a contract. reneweconomy.com.au/squadron-says-…

As environment ministers met in St. John's to talk climate, ExxonMobil was drilling an exploratory well 500 km off the coast. About that, fed minister Steven Guilbeault said, "We will continue using fossil fuels in a carbon-neutral world, in 2050." thecanadianpressnews.ca/business/newfo…

Any strategy to protect the Atlantic salmon has to deal with destructive aquaculture. Are our governments willing to take on the global fish-farm industry? Not Premier of NL Andrew Furey, that's for sure. cbc.ca/news/canada/no…

Meanwhile, in Ontario...

If plans proceed, Germany will be getting fertilizer produced with World Energy GH2 hydrogen and subsidized by #NL and Cdn taxpayers. NLers will also be paying higher hydro bills. A great deal - for Germany.

As in #NL, so in #NS Everwind faces environmental opposition -- in NS to its plan to plunk 400 industrial wind turbines in Guysborough County, one of the last wildnerness areas left in the province. globalnews.ca/news/10623132/…

As backlash builds against the return of draggers to the cod fishery, EnviroWatch NL sits down with fisheries scientist Abe Solberg of the FFAW-Unifor to ponder the question of the hour -- what was Fisheries and Oceans thinking? youtube.com/watch?v=LumnqH…

Great discussion with Robert Loder regarding secrecy, misinformation and the mammoth wind energy projects being forced on NLers against their wishes. facebook.com/share/p/2VaFDv…
