In this Podcast we discuss with Elaine Graham Leigh a Marxist view on the climate crisis
\nFrom the youth climate strikes to the Green New Deal, climate change has moved up the political agenda. Elaine Graham Leigh a local author has just published a book on \u201cMarx And The Climate Crisis.\u201d
\nFor many that may sound a strange title to relate a 19th century writer of the industrial era to a post industrial world we live in but Elaine says,
\n\u201cMarx\u2019s analysis of capitalism provides the basis for understanding how the system\u2019s destructiveness is driving the climate crisis. Elaine Graham-Leigh shows how Marx\u2019s ideas explain the climate breakdown and how we can create a society that protects both people and planet. This is a manifesto for system change as well as an account of why humanity faces its greatest crisis.\u201dÂ
