Today, I had the pleasure of meeting with the Council of Leaders from the Northwest Territories to discuss our upcoming #Arctic Foreign Policy. Your insights are crucial in shaping this policy as we commit to meaningful engagement for a stronger, more inclusive Arctic future.

50 years ago today I became a vegetarian. Within a few weeks, I realized there was a connection between feminism & vegetarianism, meat eating & masculinity. 15 years later, "The Sexual Politics of Meat" was published. In Dec it appears in a new edition bloomsbury.com/us/sexual-poli…

#Arctic northern sea route shipping line announced by 🇷🇺 🇨🇳 yesterday (and in context of DP World planning/investment in NSR) is something many argued we’d not see: “not commercially viable” etc simply applied a narrow western lens to the Arctic strategic zone. 1/2

This week, Animal Justice’s executive director @CamilleLabchuk testified at a committee meeting studying the PUPS Act. This Ontario bill aims to regulate dog breeding, but as it stands, would FAIL to protect dogs from abusive breeders 🐶🚫 Act now: animaljustice.ca/PuppyMills

But it's also a cautionary tale for the global energy transition. While governments want critical minerals like copper to replace fossil fuels — with EVs, solar panels, wind turbines — few citizens want the mines that produce them. First Quantum learned this the hard way.

It's also a story that resonates far beyond the walls of First Quantum’s offices and the borders of Panama, highlighting a dilemma at the heart of the global transition away from fossil fuels. While govs are pushing to secure the raw materials ... few of their citizens want them.

A story I've been reporting for months is out now in @business It's about a Canadian mining company that built one of the world's largest and newest copper mines — then saw it all fall apart. 🧵 bloomberg.com/news/articles/…

Pigs are social beings who bond with their loved ones for life! They thrive on companionship & LOVE to snuggle close to their besties at night. They prefer specific individuals over others (meaning their BFF really is their BFF!). Pigs are someone — not something. 💚 🐷

#Russia is considering withdrawal from the UN Convention on the Law of the #Sea in the #Arctic. The treaty, which is a key pillar to regulate international cooperation in the sea, is seen by the Russian authorities as “detrimental”. thebarentsobserver.com/en/2024/03/rus…

"Treating beef like coal would make a big dent in greenhouse-gas emissions"

Beef emits 31 times more CO₂ per calorie of food than tofu does. By cooking so many cows, humans are cooking themselves, too. Forgoing steaks may be one of the most efficient ways to reduce our carbon footprint econ.st/3T4w5Zm 👇

Greenland has published a new foreign-, security-, and defense policy. Just the second in history. The first one was in 2011, and when comparing the two, it is clear how security dynamics have changed in the Arctic and beyond. The war in Ukraine has had a seismic effect in the…
