Veltman is accused of deliberately striking Afzaal family members with his pickup truck while they were out for a late evening walk.

The Mercury News reporter Will McCarthy writes about a stalled California State Senate bill that would have tripled the fines paid by refineries for emitting toxic pollutants. In a nutshell:The bill, AB 1465, sponsored by Assemblymember Buffy Wicks, was postponed until 2024 at the request of Wicks herself. From an environmental perspective, refinery pollution contributes to air and water contamination. Water pollution can occur through leaks, spills, or runoff, affecting aquatic life and water quality. Altogether, refinery pollution underscores the importance of stringent regulations and monitoring to safeguard public health and the environment.

In a nutshell:Companies are increasingly embracing the concept of "plastic neutrality" by purchasing plastic credits, which represent one metric ton of plastic waste removed from the environment. However, skepticism exists regarding whether plastic credits truly offset the environmental impacts of plastic production and use. "The only real solution to the full suite of plastic pollution problems is to stop making so much plastic in the first place." Excessive plastic production exacerbates plastic pollution, which poses threats to marine life and ecosystems. Moreover, petrochemical companies, invested in plastic production, may hinder efforts to cap or reduce plastic manufacturing, perpetuating environmental and health risks.

A group of Canadian filmmakers has joined forces with Hollywood A-listers in asking the Toronto International Film Festival to end sponsorship ties with the Royal Bank of Canada because of the bank's funding of the oil and gas industry. Organizers of the campaign called RBC Off Screen say the financial institution's track record of investing in fossil fuels runs contrary to the socially progressive values the film festival purports to stand for. Kephart and Gutierrez, who started the campaign, say they have the support of more than 200 industry workers. The group's statement says RBC is one of the largest financiers of oil and gas projects in the world and supports projects that have negatively impacted Indigenous lands and racialized people. TIFF's vice-president of public relations, Judy Lung, said in a statement the festival appreciates the sustainability concerns being brought forward, and that they are talking to RBC about them.

Callum Shoniker knows what it’s like to be a member of PAW Patrol’s fandom. Like most kids, Shoniker had a favourite character: Rocky, the eco-puppy who reuses and recycles anything he can get his paws on. Unlike most kids, Shoniker would later voice his preferred pup in a blockbuster film franchise alongside Kim Kardashian. Long before Shoniker was cast in 2021’s PAW Patrol: The Movie—and its sequel, PAW Patrol: The Mighty Movie, out this month—he cut his teeth as Rumpelstiltskin on the theatre-camp circuit. In April, Shoniker, now 14, debuted as class clown Mike Cavalleri on YTV’s live-action preteen series, Popularity Papers.

September 12, 2023 —Oil production around the southwest Manitoba community of Virden remains steady, and while diversifying the economy away from fossil fuels will be key for the region in the future, it’s not an immediate concern for some local leaders. Residents of Virden — which lies about 70 km west of Brandon — and the surrounding area have benefited financially for several decades from oil extraction. It’s something Bruce Dunning, a town councillor who runs a consulting business in Manitoba’s relatively small oil industry, has seen first-hand. Fletcher Baragar, a professor in the department of economics at University of Manitoba, said the oil industry is only a small piece of the provincial economy, but it has had a big impact on the regional economy. “We certainly did have our mini boom but we’re on the tail end of that now,” he saidRead here
