Shocking new photos released today reveal the existence of a massive stockpile of old-growth logs that are destined to become disposable products like Kleenex tissue and Cottonelle toilet paper for tissue giant Kimberly-Clark Corporation (K-C). The logs originate from the Ogoki Forest, the single most ecologically valuable area left in Ontario’s southern Boreal Forest and the site of growing controversy. Enlarge Image

Video: $telmach: The Best Premier Oil Money Can Buy

Greenpeace activists descend from the ceiling of the Shaw Conference Centre earlier this evening, April 24, 2008, as Premier Stelmach began addressing his supporters at the annual Edmonton Premier's Dinner. The activists unfurled a banner as they dropped, reading "$telmach: The Best Premier Oil Money Can Buy."

A new report released by Greenpeace on the 10th of April 2008 finds that logging in Canada’s Boreal Forest is making global warming worse by releasing greenhouse gases and reducing carbon storage. It also finds that logging makes the forest more susceptible to global warming impacts like wildfires and insect outbreaks, which in turn release more greenhouse gases. Here is a selection of some pictures that can be found in the report. Enlarge Image

Politicians tell us there is not enough potential renewable energy to keep the lights on in Ontario without nuclear or coal power. They’re wrong. Enlarge Image

The Potential of Wind Power on the Great Lakes

Politicians tell us there is not enough potential renewable energy to keep the lights on in Ontario without nuclear or coal power. They’re wrong. At the end of August, the McGuinty government released a 20-year electricity plan that overlooks a whole array of options for renewable and clean energy in favour of a $40 billion nuclear building spree. One untapped renewable resource is wind power on the Great Lakes. A government commissioned study in 2005 showed that there’s enough wind on the Great Lakes to generate up to 47,000 megawatts of electricity. That’s almost fives times the capacity of Ontario’s ageing nuclear stations. Despite this, the McGuinty government has rejected outright any development of offshore wind. Should we believe the Liberals when they tell us we don’t have the renewable energy potential to go without nuclear or coal? No.
