Ecosocialism

Troll the Marxist websites and you’ll begin to see the true face of what the Climate Crisis is really all about. Anti-capitalism.

Climate change is much more than one ecological problem among others: it is the chemically pure expression of the fact that the irrepressible capitalist logic of accumulation is leading humanity to destroy the environment in which civilizations have developed for six thousand years.

The only way to ward off the danger is by radically reducing greenhouse gas emissions, and therefore similarly reducing flows of energy and matter. Time is short. The enormity of the challenge, the vertiginous scale of the policies that need to be implemented, the urgency of their implementation and the coincidence with the most serious economic crisis since 1929 are suddenly giving a very concrete meaning to the ecosocialist perspective, a meaning which is both anti-capitalist and anti-productivist~internationalviewpoint.org

The only difference here is the source and honesty of the author. Other voices insist on insisting that averting climate disaster is not about instituting socialism. They lie.
