: "This direct association made by Marx between the exploitation of the proletariat and the exploitation of the soil is a good starting point for thinking about the link between class struggle and the struggle to defend the environment, in a common struggle against the domination of capital.

After the exhaustion of the soil, the other example of ecological catastrophe frequently mentioned by Marx and Engels is the destruction of forests. It appears several times in Capital:

The development of civilisation and of industry in general has always shown itself so active in the destruction of forests that everything that has been done for their conservation and production is completely insignificant in comparison.7

The two phenomena the degradation of forests and that of the soil are closely linked in their analyses."

There, you find 25 "rain" hits. Reading them, it becomes clear that knowledge was very limited back then. No surprise, it doesn't talk about "extreme weather events" either:

Mainstream Climate Science: The New Denialism - Jonathon Porritt

> This is a bit of a long one! So heres my Executive Summary so you can decide whether to commit the time to the rest of it: mainstream climate scientists run the risk of becoming the new climate deniers.

Una buona e una cattiva notizia. Cattiva: le emissioni globali hanno raggiunto un nuovo record nel 2023. Buona: laumento stato frenato in modo significativo dalla diffusione delle rinnovabili e delle auto elettriche. A certificarlo la International Energy Agency (IEA), che nel suo ultimo report ha analizzato landamento negli ultimi 5 anni, mostrando il ruolo delle tecnologie pulite nel contrastare la crisi climatica.

We know that when for-profit companies control fossil fuel supplies, they will do anything to maintain and increase use, regardless of the costs to humans and our environments. Including investing millions in deceiving and manipulating citizens and officials

So why isn't there serious debate about confiscating fossil fuel supplies without compensation, and putting them under public control

Winners and losers': The world of is being reordered by laws to stop cutting of forests

I am surprised to learn several people I know who work very hard to pass strong goals to build climate resilience are not themselves willing to compromise enough to meet their own goals. For example, we can't just expect to continue living in sprawl and drive everywhere anymore. The cost -financial and environmental - is too damn high.

Their only PR strategy is to keep denying the seriousness of the climate disaster as long as possible.

The Financial Times reports that the world is 'now warming at a pace that scientists did not expect and, alarmingly, do not fully understand' and that in 2023 'more than 90% of the worlds oceans suffered heatwave conditions, glaciers lost the most ice on record and the extent of Antarctic sea ice fell to by far the lowest levels ever measured'.
