Climate change: it's going to take a revolution

Climate change is real, it’s here and it’s going to get worse. We’ve known about it for decades, and real solutions exist. But the leaders of the world appear determined to do nothing about it. All the signs are that the international COP21 climate talks in Paris this December will produce an agreement to let us burn.



The attacks in Paris on November 13th brought home the war that Canada and the largest climate polluting nations of the world have been waging to control the oil in the Middle East. The hundreds of thousands who have died in Syria, the millions more refugees and the civilians who died in Paris are all victims of this war. Indeed the conflict in Syria itself began partly as a consequence of a devastating drought and so these are also victims of climate change.



Check out this powerful new video, directed by Suhail Ilyas and join us for a discussion about how the obstacles to solving the problem are intrinsic to our capitalist system. The growing strength of the climate movement around the world gives us great hope, but it’s going to take a revolution to make the world inhabitable for future generations.
