Climate Change Thread

[Tuuvi]

Just because the anti-capitalist/'corporations are always evil crowd' are bandwagon-ing an idea to further their own agendas does NOT mean that the concept being used is necessarily false -- though I doubt you could get the current US administration to agree to that.

Anti-capitalists aren't bandwagoning anything. Leftists like Murray Bookchin have been writing about environmental issues since the 60's. There's no point in building a classless worker's utopia if it all gets destroyed by global heating.

Not to mention global heating is caused by industrialization, which was brought on by capitalism, and just 100 companies are responsible for 71% of greenhouse gas emissions. I think there's a strong case to be made that the shift to a de-carbonized economy will require drastic changes to our economic system.
