![]() ![]() Chomsky and Pollin examine how we can build the political force to make a global Green New Deal a reality. The real question is whether it is politically feasible. This version of a Green New Deal program is, in fact, entirely realistic in terms of its purely economic and technical features. Putting meat on the bones of the Green New Deal starts with a single simple idea: we have to absolutely stop burning fossil fuels to produce energy within the next 30 years at most and we have to do this in a way that also supports rising living standards and expanding opportunities for working people and the poor throughout the world. At the same time, there is a solution at hand, which is the Green New Deal. Meanwhile, the leaders of the most powerful state in human history are dedicating themselves with passion to destroying the prospects for organized human life. Those alive today will decide the fate of humanity. The environmental crisis under way is unique in human history. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() €œDon’t let any of the fuckers bite you,†Rune said, her heart racing, “unless you dig that particular rotting skin look.†And sometimes you will write something so perfect about my books that I print it out and read it every single day for encouragement. ![]() You’ve all touched this series in some way—by answering questions, helping me get the word out about the crew, being the most awesome of fans, or by being super supportive.
