"This is a small book but its message is vital. Those who exploit the labour of others for profit also exploit the earth's precious resources for the same reason. If you campaign to save the planet, join a picket line, and vice versa. The struggle doesn't change - it is the class struggle, and this time we must win. Thank you Sarah and John." - KEN LOACH
The capitalist system, which sees everything in terms of profit, is exploiting the planet to destruction with the same ruthless logic that it exploits workers. The threat from climate change, and from capitalism's treatment of the planet as an infinite resource, is so large that our societies seem afraid to confront it; but when we understand that this threat comes from the same capitalist forces that dominate our everyday lives, the way forward becomes clear. The fight against the system that is destroying our planet, is the same as the fight against the system that is producing ever more mind-boggling inequalities.
This small book is made up of three short chapters totalling around 9,000 words, and illustrated with quotes from a range of writers. It is addressed, primarilly, to a working-class audience because most books on climate change ignore working-class concerns; because the working class will be affected first and worst, despite being least responsible; and because the people most responsible for climate change are too vested in the current system to countenance significant disruption, while the combined power of the working class is the force that can bring the world to its senses.
