There comes a moment in every generation when silence becomes betrayal—when the people must rise and fight the powers that be. We are living in that moment. The powers that be are not just people. They are systems. They are institutions built on oppression, manipulation, and fear. They are the invisible chains of poverty, racism, […]
April 22 2025 marks earth day, and a spooky sense of a past that was different before humans dominated everything through technologies.
Better time for the earth or just different depends on your perspective. Nature still remains recreational and exists in a few places ( besides AI).
Nature reserves
Many natural nature reserve places are worth visiting, each offering unique experiences and showcasing the beauty of the natural world. Here are a few examples from different regions, along with information about potential costs: In Canada: * Pacific Rim National Park Reserve (British Columbia): Located on the west coast of Vancouver Island, this reserve boasts long sandy beaches, temperate rainforests, and the rugged coastline. You can enjoy activities like storm watching, beach walking, cycling, and hiking. The famous West Coast Trail and the Broken Group Islands offer more remote backcountry experiences. * Cost: Daily visitor fees apply, and there are separate fees for camping and programs. Admission is free for youth. You might need to purchase a Parks Canada pass depending on the duration of your visit. Backcountry camping on the West Coast Trail and in the Broken Group Islands also requires reservations and fees. * Gros Morne National Park (Newfoundland & Labrador): This UNESCO World Heritage Site features towering granite mountains, deep fjords, forests, beaches, and waterfalls. It’s known for its geological significance, showcasing plate tectonics. Activities include hiking, wildlife spotting, boat tours, and kayaking. * Cost: Similar to other national parks in Canada, daily visitor fees and camping fees may apply. Check the Parks Canada website for the most up-to-date fee schedule. In Other Parts of the World: * Ngorongoro Conservation Area (Tanzania): This is the world’s largest inactive volcanic caldera, teeming with wildlife, including the “Big Five.” It’s often called the “Garden of Eden.” You can experience safaris and visit the Olduvai Museum. * Cost: Entry fees to the conservation area apply, and safari costs can vary significantly depending on the type and duration. * Yellowstone National Park (USA): The world’s first national park, located in Wyoming, Montana, and Idaho, is famous for its geysers, hot springs, waterfalls, and diverse wildlife, including bison, elk, and bears. * Cost: Entrance fees are required, and they vary depending on the type of pass and duration of the visit. * Corcovado National Park (Costa Rica): Described as one of the most biologically intense places on Earth, it has lush rainforests and abundant wildlife. * Cost: There are entrance fees for the national park. General Information about Costs: * Entrance Fees: Many national and natural parks charge daily or period-based entrance fees per person or per vehicle. * Park Passes: If you plan to visit multiple times or several national parks within a certain region, purchasing an annual or multi-park pass can be more cost-effective. * Camping and Accommodation: If you intend to stay overnight within the reserve, there will likely be camping fees or costs for other accommodations. * Tours and Activities: Guided tours, wildlife viewing excursions, boat trips, and other activities within the reserves often have separate charges. * Transportation: Factor in the cost of getting to the nature reserve, including fuel, flights, or public transport. * Ecological Reserves: Some ecological reserves, like those managed by BC Parks, are open to the public for non-destructive observation without an entrance fee. However, they are primarily for conservation, and facilities might be minimal. * Volunteer-Managed Reserves: Some smaller nature reserves managed by organizations like Ontario Nature do not charge entrance fees and rely on visitors to be respectful and minimize their impact. It’s always best to check the official website of the specific nature reserve you plan to visit for the most accurate and up-to-date information on fees, hours of operation, and any necessary permits or reservations. Keep in mind that costs can change, and some reserves may have seasonal pricing.

Canada’s electric vehicle (EV) market is experiencing significant growth in both production and consumption. Here’s a summary: Production: * While Canada doesn’t have a large number of domestic EV manufacturers compared to other countries, it is making strides in this area. Several companies are investing in EV production and battery manufacturing facilities in Canada. * The Canadian government is actively promoting the development of the EV industry through various incentives and investments. This is attracting both established automakers and new players to set up production facilities in the country. * Canada is also rich in resources needed for battery production, such as lithium, nickel, and cobalt. This gives the country a competitive advantage in the EV market. Consumption: * EV sales in Canada have been steadily increasing in recent years. In 2023, zero-emission vehicles (ZEVs) accounted for 11.7% of new light-duty vehicle sales, a significant jump from previous years. * Several factors are driving this increase in EV adoption, including government incentives, growing awareness of environmental issues, and the increasing availability of EV models. * British Columbia and Quebec are leading the way in EV adoption, with higher market shares compared to other provinces. Overall, the Canadian EV market is dynamic and growing rapidly. With increasing production capacity and strong consumer demand, EVs are expected to play a significant role in Canada’s transportation sector in the coming years.

Side Note : Masks are mandatory again in BC where treatments are going on. This as flu season progresses and is projected to be in place until spring.
Headquartered in El Paso, Texas. This company has a very interesting code of conduct for its products. It seems to be fitting with the need at this time to address unethical trade practices that might attract sanctions from an incoming new government.
The company does more than 200 Billion annually in claimed ethical wares.
Ethically sourced supply chains are scrutinized for things like child labor, slave labor.
You are not a magician. You’ve got to rely on you and your others. And you don’t want to be a burden on anybody, including yourself. Make plans. Years are coming. Decades are flying. Centuries are looming. + You don’t want to miss a thing.
500 million dollars BC Hydro. This project is going to be done by BC Hydro. Although their name Hydro connotates the fact that they own every drop of water in British Columbia as a monopoly for power generation. They are expanding wind farms and power smart are in their resume.

Environmental assessment waived
The company has just been directed to do everything as efficiently as possible and they’re waiving the environmental assessment. Which may in one case be reasonable because of the wind and its passiveness. However, they are notorious for bird kills and I would think that would be part of the environment. More on this later we hope. Maybe we can get a quote from theNicola Naturalist Society Incorporated. Alan Berger president.
Alan Burger and the Nicola naturalist Society Incorporated are out today doing their Christmas bird count. Nearly three decades of service…Humming bird.
