Climate crisis: A struggle about economic power and leadership
Channel: ecapio
Date: 2015-11-20

The climate crisis is a consequence of our economic system. Economic solutions, like the carbon trade, were supposed to be a problem solver. But instead, the CO2 level rose anyway. Should we consider changing our economic system instead? And what role do environmental NGOs play in the battle for climate justice?
