Our society generally agrees that in times of crisis, rules may have to be broken for vital causes by those willing to risk the consequences. But what of the climate crisis? What rules should scientists be breaking, repercussions be damned, to help solve it? How should the keepers of dire knowledge behave when the whole world is careening toward outcomes they can foresee and from which the world will not recover?

Ontario recently announced it would contract new polluting gas plants to generate electricity for the province. This is outrageous, especially given that Ontario successfully phased out coal-fired power plants between 2005 and 2017 and brought down greenhouse gas emissions from the electricity sector by 93 per cent. Now, emissions from the production of electricity are set to soar by almost 400 per cent by 2030 and by more than 600 per cent by 2040 (compared to the 2017 level).
