BREAKING: simultaneous freakish heat in the Arctic and Antarctic described as 'impossible' and 'unthinkable' by scientists as abrupt climate change accelerates wildly 🧵 pic.twitter.com/jGwovCRLeT— Ben See (@ClimateBen) March 19, 2022
I think its going to take the coordinated action of many third world nations to actually change anything about climate change. They're the places with the most to lose and whose exploitation is necessary to create hyper-profits driving climate change. I've been thinking a lot about the futures sketched out in Wainwright and Mann's Climate Leviathan. They're very skeptical of what they call "Climate Mao" because of authoritarianism and achieving Climate Mao would require a reorientation of the PRC, but I'm thinking more and more that it is the best hope .
I'm kinda optimistic on India too, not really because of CPIM or the Naxalites or whatever but because the reality of India, its place in the imperialist pecking order, and the needs of its people continually place it at odds with the West despite it being governed by a reactionary government.
