As Naomi Klein describes in This Changes Everything, Paul Mason in PostCapitalism, Russell Brand in Revolution and Charles Eisenstein in Sacred Economics, the neo-liberal agenda has failed. If the system worked we would not have had to bail out the banks. If the system worked, we would not be seeing the collapse at the fringes, at Blockadia.
To address climate change, we cannot tinkle with the system, we cannot continue burning fossil fuels, with exponential growth on a finite planet.
To address climate change, we have to change everything. If we are going to change everything then we have an opportunity to move to a more equatable, fairer world.
This evening saw the premier of the film This Changes Everything.
