Climate Change is a Class Issue is not just an explanation of the link between capitalism and the climate crisis, it is also a short and down-to-earth primer on ecosocialism.
First, by clearly identifying capitalism as the problem and second, by laying out the brutal reality that most of us are forced to earn our living doing things that do not contribute much to humanity and often are at a great cost to the environment.
The solution to this contradiction, the book argues, lies in the democratisation of production and distribution.
The book sketches out a simple manifesto for change that is more of a framework than a detailed program, but it develops practical campaign demands and examples.
