The worst wildfire season in Canadian history, worsening environmental degradation, and the hottest week ever recorded. Amid the consequences of human impact on our planet becoming increasingly dire, large corporations – including the fossil fuel industry – continue to hold enormous sway over environmental policy and enjoy record levels of profit. Despite numerous international climate agreements and corporate pledges, market-based solutions have failed at every stage to offer a credible way out of our current crisis.

It’s in this moment that many in the environmental and climate justice movements are turning away from initiatives based on assumed economic growth and increased profits, and toward a reorganization of the economy able to adequately address the crisis in ways the status quo cannot.

All are welcome to join us for a discussion of these topics and others at System Change: An ecosocialist discussion on environmental crisis, presented by the Socialist Project and the Leo Panitch School for Socialist Education.

Featuring a fantastic panel of organizers active in both the labour and climate justice movements, including:

• Tiffany Balducci – Green Jobs Oshawa and Canadian Union of Public Employees (CUPE)
• Vinnie Collins – Socialist Project
• Aniket – Climate Justice Toronto (CJTO)
• Sharmini Peries (moderator) – Socialist Project
