war mean as a serious issue they cannot expect poor ones to do so either the u.s only represents NUMBER_TOKEN of global carbon dioxide emissions its failure to act doesn't spell the end and that gives me hope the world can and should move on without us to address climate change if the ruling class politicians lining the halls of congress and the white house have their way it seems that the u.s will continue to fail on climate action which means that we need to work towards two movements first an anti-imperialist anti-fossil fuel anti-capitalist climate revolution must seize the us this means implementing strong agrarian transportation healthcare and economic measures that foreground climate action the end to all systems of oppression and the well-being of people living both inside and outside the borders of the united states these domestic actions must be coupled with the funneling of the massive profits that have been gained through centuries of plunder of the global south back into their hands as a form of climate reparations but while we in the u.s build the power necessary to make that happen the second movement must also take root a parallel leftist climate revolution in peripheral countries in all likelihood a climate revolution will happen first in the imperial periphery and spread into the core so it's countries like bolivia like even the communist regions of the philippines that are the true climate vanguards those of us in the imperial core need to do all we can to bring about the end of imperial power but we also need to look to our comrades in the imperial periphery for leadership if we are to liberate both ourselves and the planet from destruction unfortunately videos like these while very important do terribly with the youtube algorithm and sponsors don't want to touch them but there is a way you can help becoming an occ patreon supporter helps our changing climate stay afloat and independent as an occ patron you'll not only gain early access to videos but also special behind the scenes updates and a members only discord channel in addition each month my supporters vote on an environmental group that i then donate a portion of my monthly revenue to patreon supporters are the financial backbone of the are changing climate operation without them i wouldn't be able to take creative risks and dive into difficult topics so if you want to help keep this channel alive or are feeling generous head over to URL_TOKEN our changing climate or use the link in the description and become an occ patron if you're not interested or aren't financially able to then no worries you can help the channel out by subscribing liking the video and commenting i hope you all enjoyed the video and i will see you in two weeks
