Greenpeace Canada has published an opinion piece linking Canada’s wildfires, fossil fuel policy, and opposition to AI data centers.

  • The article argues that wildfire smoke is now a permanent part of children’s lives, criticizes pipeline deals and the federal “AI for All” strategy, and says Hamilton is moving toward a moratorium on data centers.
  • It also highlights a Greenpeace Canada petition with 116,000 signatures for a strong federal Nature Law, and calls for an excess profits tax on oil and gas industry profits.
