The first paragraph from Socialist Unity:
While it may be urgent that we create a red green alliance to strengthen radical social action to stop climate change, our collective problem is how are we going to do that?
The agenda:
- properly resourced public agencies to drive the sustainability effort,
- an international framework where the First World pays the vast bulk of the price of reversing global warming,
- an end to rampant consumerism,
- vastly strengthened campaigns for climate sustainability, and
- building a powerful political alliance for climate sustainability with social justice.
Another way to say it: “Turning the first world back into the third world.” Universal misery is such fun! H/t, Coyote.
