Political elites have deftly sidestepped the root causes of climate change through deceptive solutions. Their market-oriented tools, such as carbon trading, seek to incentivize technological innovation, promising to decarbonize or replace dominant high-carbon systems. However, in reality, this techno-market framework has perpetuated climate change and social inequalities, sparking widespread public controversy. Taking advantage of this moment, social movements have emerged with low-carbon, resource-light, and socially equitable alternatives. These transformative mobilizations align with the popular slogan, "System Change, Not Climate Change." This book delves into critical concepts through case studies, including genetically modified crops, biofuels, waste incineration, and Green New Deal agendas. By examining these examples, readers gain a deeper understanding of the complexities and challenges associated with addressing climate change and fostering a more sustainable and just future.
