VANCOUVER COUNCIL; HYPOCRITES EXTRAORDINAIRE

   As cities around the world — particularly coastal ones — take a hard look at the costs of climate change, Vancouver’s council is debating asking fossil fuel companies to pay a share.
  The motion would direct Vancouver’s mayor to write a letter to the world’s largest fossil fuel companies — those “with the highest percentage of greenhouse gas emissions” — asking them to be “accountable for their share of climate emergency costs.” West Coast Environmental Law, the organizer of the letter-writing campaign, has a list of 20 of those fossil fuel companies, none of which are based in Canada. 

  Calling Vancouver a hypocrite for opposing carbon emissions while also being the continent’s largest coal port.

  Vancouver could see a record breaking year for the cruise ship industry -  those cruise ships that are horrible for the environment
