This choice and the resultant consequence of global warming, were made in order to undermine and challenge working class resistance to early 19th century capitalism. </span></p><p class="m_5119553150879343052gmail-m4171286448653880967p2"><span class="m_5119553150879343052gmail-m4171286448653880967s1" style="background-color:rgba(255,255,255,0)">In the 21st century with temperatures continuing to rise and 2016 once again the hottest year on record by some margin, the issue of an alternative to Fossil Capital is more urgent than ever.</span></p><div><span style="background-color:rgba(255,255,255,0)"><span class="m_5119553150879343052gmail-m4171286448653880967s1">The CACC trade union group are delighted to be in conversation with Andreas Malm to discuss this question. Is there an alternative to the dangerous relationship between fossil fuels and capitalism? What does an alternative look like? Is it possible?
