- #EV adoption combined with a clean grid could yield over $100 billion in health savings by 2050. Cleaner vehicles mean: ✅ Fewer asthma attacks ✅ Fewer ER visits ✅ Lower public health costs More on how climate action addresses Canadians’ biggest concerns like healthcare costs 👇 buff.ly/5rTPr9q
- 🌍⚡ The Age of Electricity is accelerating. The latest IEA electricity forecast shows that renewables + nuclear are set to generate 50% of global electricity by 2030—up from 42% today. 🔗 Read the report:
- Canada’s new vehicle emissions standard is a positive starting point but should be seen as a minimum baseline of ambition. If the gov’t is serious about ensuring we remain competitive in an electrifying world, we need stronger regulations to keep emissions falling. 📉 buff.ly/G6Xg9ct
- In Canada, #wind and #solar costs have fallen by about half in 10 years. 🤯 Find out why ⤵️ www.pembina.org/blog/canadia...
- Canada’s best auto jobs strategy is to build a strong electric vehicle market at home and use it as a platform to compete in a world where EV demand is accelerating 👇 buff.ly/UoUE0vu
- There are no perfect policy choices – only better ones. The #ElectricVehicleAvailabilityStandard supports emissions reductions, vehicle affordability and a stronger, more resilient Canadian auto sector. 🚗🍁 That’s why it remains a vital tool.
- To build the future, we first need to build the workforce. Our Sustainable Workforce manager Megan Gordon on CBC radio 🎧👇
- 📢 NEW DATA: We can reduce total #EV charging infrastructure costs by up to 75% by 2030 with smart planning, an investment savings of $1 billion dollars. 🚗🔌 Our Transportation team breaks it down 👇
- What does a strong #CleanEnergy workforce actually need? We asked workers, labour leaders, gov’ts and more, and the answers were clear: stable policy, coordination and supportive jobsites. Our early takeaways 👇 buff.ly/XFxblPL
