Ecosocialism Seminar Sun 3 April 2011
Eco-Socialism - What it is and what it means for activists today
The climate crisis, toxic production, pollution, over-fishing, biodiversity loss... These are only some of the acute environmental problems we face today.
The solutions to these problems cut against the profits-first character of the capitalist society in which we live.
This seminar will discuss: How can we move to a sustainable society and what will it look like? Do we have to abandon industrial society to save the environment? Are socialist solutions achievable? What is eco-socialism? Is "eco-socialism" different to "socialism"?
Guest speakers:
Sam Wainwight (Socialist Alliance)
Chris Jenkins (Resistance)
Sunday 3 April
12 noon - cheap lunch
1pm - free seminar
Perth Activist Centre (15/5 Aberdeen St, East Perth - next to McIver station)
