Description
A socialist response to the looming ecological crisisAs the Anthropocene advances, people across the red-green political spectrum seek to understand and halt our deepening ecological crisis.
Environmentalists, scientists, and eco-socialists share concerns about the misuse and overuse of natural resources, but often differ on explanations and solutions.
Some blame environmental disasters on overpopulation.
Others wonder if Darwin s evolutionary theories disprove Marx s revolutionary views, or if capitalist history contradicts Anthropocene science.
Some ask if all this worry about climate change and the ecosystem might lead to a catastrophism that weakens efforts to heal the planet.Ian Angus responds to these concerns inA Redder Shade of Green, with a fresh, insightful clarity, bringing socialist values to science, and scientific rigor to socialism.
He challenges not only mainstream green thought, but also radicals who misuse or misrepresent environmental science. Angus s argument that confronting environmental destruction requires both cutting-edge scientific research and a Marxist understanding of capitalism makes this book an essential resource in the fight to prevent environmental destruction in the 21st century."
