  • I’m not sure why you assume this but my wife and I both work in high school (grade 8 - 12) which is part of a small, fairly conservative community. Our administrative staff all the way up to superintendent are extremely supportive of these types of things. Inclusion and awareness is very important at our high school for everyone. We also have social media education introduced in multiple classes. About 3/4 of all staff are female and neither of us have witnessed this type of misogynistic behavior. Our struggle is racism, antisemitism and intolerance.

    I’m not saying that misogyny isn’t a problem, I experience it on instagram and YouTube all the time and the comment sections are insane. My point is that administration does care, we are encouraged to include this type of education in our curriculum and we talk about it during staff meetings.




  • The website this article uses (https://www.bankingonclimatechaos.org/) is extremely interesting and holds a lot of data.

    Looking at Enbridge as an example it reports that a total of $86b was invested from banks between 2021 and 2024. The info that I cannot find is how much Enbridge invests into infrastructure like transmission lines or how much of that $86b went towards renewables. Enbridge has “commited” to Net-Zero by 2050.

    I am 100% for transitioning to cleaner, renewable energy and getting Canada into energy independence. It’s going to take time and money and professionals. Companies like Enbridge aren’t going to stop producing carbon, but I think they are going to be the ones that make the biggest steps towards getting us there.
