Climate
Catastrophe and Social Change, an Eco-Socialist Perspective
Every
region of the earth needs to face the coming dislocations of our ecologies, our
economies, and our public health that global climate change is bringing. The
crisis provides the greatest evidence that capitalism has failed. A socialist
perspective can provide a necessary analysis of the roots of the problem. We
call upon socialists, environmental activists, and working class organizations
to come together to study the science, share experiences on physical mitigation
and the social fight back, and to discuss the likelihood that only a socialist
transformation, an extreme concentration of people power, can stop capitalism
from killing the planet.
