🚀 The CEC is looking for consultants related to a regional assessment on the uptake of the 2016 CEC Technical Guidelines on Environmentally Sound Management of Spent Lead-Acid Batteries (SLABs) in North America.

The work will center on a regional survey of recycling facilities and key actors and will result in both a technical report and a set of policy recommendations to guide future action. ♻️🔊🔋

Specifically, the consultant would be expected to:
🟢 Design a science-based survey to collect the data needed to assess the adoption of the CEC- environmentally sound management (ESM) Guidelines and current SLAB management practices in North America.
🟢 Collect, clean and analyze the resulting data to produce a technical report presenting overall findings, levels of Guideline uptake, common and novel management practices and the gaps and opportunities for ESM of SLABs.
🟢 Develop a policy report highlighting key findings and recommendations to improve the dissemination and adoption of ESM practices, tailored to all levels of government, industry, regulators and other key actors.

🎯 Apply by Monday 14 September!

Remote and Indigenous communities across North America are leading innovative renewable energy transitions to reduce reliance on fossil fuels and build more resilient energy systems.

Through nine case studies, the CEC’s new report: “Transitioning Remote Communities to Renewable Energy” highlights community-led projects featuring solar technologies, wind turbines, hydroelectric systems and biomass heating.

The report explores how these initiatives are advancing:
🔵 Clean energy innovation
🔵 Community self-determination
🔵 Environmental sustainability
🔵 Economic empowerment

⏳ There are just a few days left in the 2026 ! Help us find monarch butterflies!

🌿🦋 How many observations of monarch butterflies and milkweed plants🌸 can you share between now and Sunday, 9 August?

📸 Your observations provide a valuable snapshot of the monarch butterfly activity during one of their peak breeding periods. Don’t miss this opportunity to have fun outdoors while helping scientists, and invite your family and friends too!

🦋 The 2026 is in full swing, and every observation matters! 🦋

🥚🐛 Monarch butterflies are out there… but where? 🤔 Check out the “Observations Interactive Map” and look for:
🔴 observation hot spots – areas where monarch and milkweed sightings have been abundant
🟡 observation cold spots – areas where milkweed has been observed, but monarchs have not (or only in low numbers)
🟠 observation mixed spots – areas where milkweed coverage is lower and monarch observations vary

🔎 Your mission: help fill the observation gaps by reporting what you see in places where data is limited!

🟡 Explore a cold spot near you:
🌿 Look for milkweed, monarch eggs, caterpillars, chrysalises and butterflies
📸 Report what you see through one of the participating community science data platforms

Every observation can help turn a cold spot into a hot spot!

No cold spot near you? No problem! Choose a place you’d like to explore or simply head outside wherever you are and document your observations.

🗺️ Zoom in on your area, explore the map and get started:

🦋 Looking for an outdoor activity this weekend? The starts TODAY, and we need you!

🌿 Help track milkweed plants and monarchs at any of their 4 life stages: eggs, caterpillars, chrysalises or butterflies.

👩🏽‍💻 Participation is easy! Simply record your observations through one of the participating community science data platforms listed on the Monarch Blitz website.

💡 Fun fact: a female monarch can lay between 300 and 400 eggs over the course of a few weeks, and they hatch within 3 to 8 days. 🥚🦋

🎯 31 July to 9 August

🦋 Monarch butterflies are out there. But where?
Step outside, report your observations and help us fill the gaps!

This interactive map showcases volunteer observations from recent editions of the and highlights three types of locations:
🔴 observation hot spots, where monarchs (across all life stages) and milkweed observations have been abundant;
🟡 observation cold spots, where milkweed has been observed but none or only a few monarchs (across all life stages) have been reported; and
🟠 observation mixed spots, where milkweed coverage has been lower and monarch observations (across all life stages) have varied, with both high and low numbers being reported.

🌿Your mission: fill the observation gaps!
➡️ Cold spots are the priority: Zoom into your area, find one nearby and report what you see.
➡️ No cold spot near you? No problem! Pick a spot, head outside and report your observations.

Milkweed is essential to the monarch life cycle, so where it thrives, monarchs may not be far behind.
Every observation matters and helps build a clearer picture of monarch breeding habitat across North America!

The is a community science effort that takes place every summer across North America.

🤩 The 10th edition of the International Monarch Monitoring Blitz is here!

What is the Monarch Blitz? It is a call to action for individuals, organizations and community scientists across North America to join efforts to conserve monarch butterflies and the habitat they depend on. This initiative takes place every summer over 10 days.

Why is it important? The Monarch Blitz database is made up almost entirely of observations shared by volunteers. Every observation matters and helps build a clearer picture of monarch breeding habitat across North America!

The countdown is on… join us 31 July to 9 August!

🟠 Spot milkweed and monarch butterflies at any of their 4 life stages:🌿🥚🐛 🦋
🔎 Log your sightings in a community science data platform and make them count!
🧡 Help protect this iconic migratory species

💡Fun fact: monarch butterflies weigh less than a gram and travel up to 5,000 kilometers!

Let’s make the 10th anniversary unforgettable! 🦋
