When the last tree is felled, we'll eat our money: Capitalism vs. the Earth

Something strange is going on. While all serious scientists are sounding the alarm, our politicians and business leaders are reassuring us: climate change is being tackled. Many people in the environmental and labour movement are joining in. They believe that technological innovation, renewable energy and a 'smart' tax system can ensure a transition to a sustainable society. If they don't start talking about vegetarianism, sweater days or cycling to work. Publicist Ludo De Witte has had enough of these sweeteners. In this solidly substantiated treatise he delivers an uncomfortable message: it's capitalism, stupid! If we want to save the earth and humanity from destruction, a system change is essential. Away from an economy with a built-in growth engine. Radical, you say? Unfortunately, there are no more solutions that are not radical. De Witte breaks a lance for 'ecosocialism' and calls on environmental activists, trade unionists and concerned citizens to join in. Or are we going to eat our money when the last tree has been felled?
