We need socialism to save the planet
About this session

2024 marked the hottest year on record and the first to exceed 1.5°C of global warming. For millions, the climate crisis isn't some distant future but a devastating present. Meanwhile the rich and powerful continue to drive us off the cliff. Governments around the world are committed to plundering the earth and destroying the environment for the wealth of a small few. This session will discuss why we need radical system change in order to have a liveable future.
