SocialistAlternative.org: Will the Downturn Save the Planet?
What is needed is a socialist green deal, which would require the dismantling of the capitalist system on an international scale – based as it is on the relentless, short-term, destructive pursuit of profit – and its replacement by a democratically planned socialist economy. In such a society, the genuine international co-operation that is necessary to tackle global warming will be possible for the first time, something that is ultimately impossible under the capitalist profit system.
