About this session
We're told by capitalists, politicians and NGOs that the human race is causing climate change through our overpopulation of the globe and our innate drive to consume. But for thousands of years human societies coexisted with the earth. This session will argue that it is capitalist society and its competitive drive for profit which is causing climate change. It is possible to totally restructure human society to save the planet - but to do that, we need a revolution.
