DoomsdaysCW<p>Auzina: Don't just buy <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Canadian" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Canadian</span></a>. Visit your local repair café too </p><p>Opinion by Aija Auzina, February 19, 2025</p><p>"We are living in unpredictable and shifting times. If we want to support Canadian businesses and not buy American, don’t buy the culture of complacency, greed and waste either. Change must be embraced with courage and responsibility.</p><p>"<a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Environmentalists" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Environmentalists</span></a> are optimistically realistic. Members of the <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Ottawa" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Ottawa</span></a> South Eco Action Network , <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/OSEAN" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>OSEAN</span></a>, embrace doing what we can with what we have and finding friends to do it with. So if we can reduce waste by hosting a repair café, or teach people to mend the rips in their clothing, or help people plant a native pollinator patch in their garden, we will act on it. And finding friends in community, government and businesses helps us stand up to the wind that is no longer at our back, but in our face. Strength is in numbers.</p><p>"<a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/ClimateChange" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ClimateChange</span></a> is a part of the chain of the choices we make. Let that bracing wind in our face help us find the courage to do better. Come to the <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/RepairCafe" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>RepairCafe</span></a> or a <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/MendingCircle" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>MendingCircle</span></a>. Fix your personal items as a responsible owner does. It takes effort, work and a bit of courage. We can do this. We can do really hard things too.</p><p>"Another word for courage is political will. We need more of it. With provincial and federal elections looming, now is the time to know your own values and live by them.</p><p>"Ownership is a responsibility that the Feb. 22 Repair Café and the specialists from the <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/OttawaToolLibrary" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>OttawaToolLibrary</span></a> (<a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/OTL" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>OTL</span></a>) can help you with. Sign up on-site to have a 30-minute slot at one of the repair tables that will be set up in the Jim Durrell Recreation Centre’s Ellwood Hall. Enjoy a mug of coffee or tea while you wait, in the pop up café.</p><p>"OSEAN, a group of volunteers, is helping organize the event with Alta Vista Coun. Marty Carr, and the good people of the tool library have the starring role. Come meet these influencers.</p><p>"How do we influence change? Be the example for others to follow. And where are we going? Toward a deep responsibility to our <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/nvironment" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>nvironment</span></a>. One step can be at the repair café, for instance with that toaster that stopped working.</p><p>"But we can’t stop working! Individual people and systems need to pivot toward responsible ownership, responsible living.The gale force wind gusts that rattle your windows and house over the last years show we have been negligent toward that responsibility. The fires in Los Angeles are also burning with that same message.</p><p>"We have not been living up to our responsibilities. Individuals, governments, industry, businesses big and small, still have not clocked the fact that we have our backs against the wall. We believe someone else will clean up after us. But mom will not come to your rescue. <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/MotherEarth" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>MotherEarth</span></a> is depleted and we did this to her.

When Oregon’s only nuclear energy facility was closed in 1992, the measure effectively ensured that nothing would take its place unless major changes happened.</p><p>"For decades those changes seemed unlikely, but a new push by the power-hungry tech industry has reignited interest in nuclear energy in the region.</p><p>"Amazon announced in October that it is partnering with Energy Northwest to develop and build nuclear reactors in southeast <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/WashingtonState" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>WashingtonState</span></a> that would power its <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/DataCenters" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>DataCenters</span></a> in <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Umatilla" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Umatilla</span></a> and <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Morrow" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Morrow</span></a> counties. Amazon would work with its partners to develop and roll out a novel technology – small modular nuclear reactors – without brushing up against the limits of Measure 7 because the reactors would be north of the <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/ColumbiaRiver" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ColumbiaRiver</span></a>.</p><p>"For Amazon, SMRs would allow the tech and e-commerce giant to harness the immense, low-carbon [sic] power potential of nuclear energy while staying true to its climate goals, and avoiding the safety and environmental concerns that have plagued traditional reactors. More than 40 years after passing Measure 7, Johnson isn’t convinced.</p><p>"'If you can’t get rid of the waste produced by these plants, it’s irresponsible for us to – for the sake of some electricity right now – leave this legacy to future generations,' he said.</p><p>"Johnson is a part of a group of environmentalists, academics and American Indian tribes who are gathering force against a nuclear energy revival in the Northwest.</p><p>"Nuclear energy opponents argue that SMRs are simply a new coat of paint on the industry’s old problems.

This would further exacerbate climate change and make the 1.5°C goal impossible to achieve.

Ms. Que Banh<p>My friend, Jane, from Lake Cowichan, was the first senior citizen activist who was arrested in 2021, at Fairy Creek Blockades. She messaged before heading out to meet up with me at HQ camp. She told me she's never been arrested for protesting anything before but due to seeing too much ecocide still happening in her golden years - declared, 'Getting arrested for protecting Mother Nature is now on my bucket list"🌲💦 💗🦅🌲🦉🌲 Jane stayed at HQ camp for 2 nights &amp; on her 3rd day, headed out to chain herself/walker to a tripod hardblock. Jane was arrested, along with 12 others that day, after several hours. Jane is a wonderful human being, a musician, a fibers artist, a Mother &amp; Grandmother, who loves nature very much.</p><p><a href="https://beige.party/tags/RadicalSeniors" class="mention hashtag"
