Update on local climate change issues

It has been a warm, snowy winter so far

The City of Thunder Bay joined 470 other Canadian cities and declared a climate emergency. The move signals the importance the cities place on climate action and is meant to spur-on federal and provincial initiatives. The climate emergency declaration was something Thunder Bay high school students had asked for during their weekly Friday climate strikes.
A spokesman for Thunder Bay noted that the city started a greenhouse gas reduction program 12 years ago and since that time has saved $13.5 million.
This is a recurring theme: what does reducing greenhouse gas cost? Nothing; it saves money.
Meanwhile provincially, Ontario Conservative Premier Doug Ford's government is actually tearing down wind turbines and dismantling solar energy sites. That move is costing Ontario taxpayers $230 million this year alone. Oh yeah, he also ripped out EV charging stations already installed at Toronto GoTrain parking lots.
My take? Unrelenting stupidity. What's next? Book-burning?
In other regional happenings, Tesla has also installed multiple charging stations in Dryden and Nipigon. I reported earlier that the electric vehicle company had also installed chargers in Thunder Bay. Without any fanfare Tesla seems to be doing this across Canada.
