"Living in the Moment": Meta Glasses

The first of its kind, the glasses are comfortable, convenient, sleek, and stylish, but it presents implications with privacy: it is easy to imagine a dystopian future where the glasses can negatively impact our lives, as the camera lenses are undetectable.

Trump’s ICE Age: The Deep Freeze on American Immigration
There are moments in history when a system doesn’t just bend, but freezes solid. For the American immigration system, that moment arrived in 2017. When Donald Trump took office, what followed wasn’t just stricter enforcement, but a fundamental shift in purpose. Immigration and Customs Enforcement , once a bureaucratic agency tasked with targeting serious criminal threats, has hardened into a blunt, “ paramilitary ”-esque political instrument . The chill spread quickly: th

A Familiar Winter Ahead for British Columbia
Every winter, the first drop in temperature brings back a familiar sense of anticipation across British Columbia.

Will It Be a Pipe or a Pipe Dream?
In 2021, Mark Carney published his book Value(s) , which includes the following passage: Efforts to address climate change have been a struggle between urgency and complacency. The urgency of carbon budgets that could be consumed within a decade. The complacency of adding to the committed carbon in our cars, homes, machines and power plants when those already in place will, over their useful lives, exhaust those carbon budgets. The urgency of the looming Sixth Mass Extinction
