Energy vs Climate: How climate is changing our energy systems

• Canada-Alberta Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) Energy Agreement | Hot Take

  There are many takes on the big Carney-Smith energy agreement – we thought you could use one more.The new Canada–Alberta MOU unveiled last Thursday is already generating more chatter than a pipeline hearing, and has set off a fresh round of debate about economy, emissions, and where the country is headed on energy. The hot takes have been flying. Naturally, we couldn’t resist adding our own, so we grabbed the mics the next day to sort through what it all means.And because we weren’t the only ones buzzing after the news dropped, we’re also bringing you five on-the-ground reactions from attendees at EvC Calgary pop-up event the day the announcement landed. You’ll hear those right after ours — a kind of post-MOU tasting flight, if you will.Send us a text (if you'd like a response, please include your email)Energy vs Climate relies on the support of our generous listenersDonate to keep EvC going.

• Sara & Ed - Help Us Reach Our Annual Listener Fundraising Goal

  For us, delivering content about energy and climate is a labour of love – we put our time towards Energy vs Climate because we feel strongly about the public service benefit of the project. But there are costs for our producer, website, Ed’s manicures, and more. (OK one of those isn’t true.) That's why this show relies on the support of generous donors, like our listeners.Please consider making a one-time or monthly donation to our annual donation campaign. Your generosity directly pays for our production hard costs, and not Ed’s manicures. Further, as a project of the Academy for Sustainable Innovation (Charitable Business Registration Number 789760675R R0001), Energy vs Climate provides a charitable tax receipt for all donations over $10. Many thanks and be well,David, Sara, and EdSend us a text (if you'd like a response, please include your email)Energy vs Climate relies on the support of our generous listenersDonate to keep EvC going.
