Good afternoon, and welcome to Globe Climate, a newsletter about climate change, the environment and resources in Canada.
To start you off with
some good news: A pair of Quebec-born cheetahs, brothers Kumbe and Jabari, are now adapting to life under the African sun.
The siblings will be released in a rare, international “rewilding” project that conservationists hope will help ensure the future of the species, which has declined to fewer than 200 animals from around 1,500 in 1975.

Hello. We begin today with a special note from Patrick Brethour, The Globe’s tax and fiscal policy reporter:
When it comes to tax debts, there’s usually no such thing as an honest mistake.
It’s certainly possible that a taxpayer can make a good-faith error. It’s just that Ottawa usually doesn’t care all that much. A mistake, even an honest one? Please pay up. An error based on our incorrect information? Sorry about that. Now, please pay up.

Terri Lynn Morrison is director, Indigenous Clean Energy network
Indigenous peoples are ready to lead Canada’s transition to a zero-carbon, more resilient, and more sustainable economy in full partnership with governments, corporations and allies.
Across the country, Indigenous communities are significantly involved in some 197 clean-energy projects that generate more than one megawatt of power, which, when the sources are operating at full capacity, is enough to power 1,200 homes. Increasingly that involvement means direct ownership and project management.
