    Solidarity with the young people protesting today. Climate change is a really difficult problem, because it's not just a matter of replacing politician A with politician B. To do anything about global warming will require a change in the entire system of globalized economics and how people relate to nature.

    In the past there have been ideas like "cap and trade" and highly personalized obsessions with managing your "carbon footprint", but none of that worked because it didn't address the underlying issues.

    No amount of celebrity photo opportunities or sucking up to old rich people will fix this. The people with the money have already decided that all is lost and have been planning for a doomsday scenario for a long time. They'd rather end it all than end capitalism.
