                                    need to mobilize now! The planet and
                                    humankind are in peril. The climate
                                    is warming, glaciers are melting,
                                    seas are rising, droughts are
                                    spreading and species are going
                                    extinct, all caused by unsustainable
                                    development and overconsumption of
                                    every resource on the planet.
                                    Meanwhile the ongoing economic
                                    crisis the worst since the Great
                                    Depression has devastated working
                                    people around the world with
                                    astronomical rates of unemployment,
                                    falling incomes and  brutal
                                    austerity measures. Everywhere, the
                                    people least responsible for these
                                    interrelated crises are bearing
                                    their brunt, in particular people in
                                    developing countries, women who are
                                    the bulk of ecological refugees, and
                                    people of color. Bangladesh with its
                                    floods and factory fires is a tragic
                                    case in point. These twin crises
                                    reveal the destructive – indeed
                                    eco-suicidal - nature of
                                    capitalism’s inherent drive to
                                    growth, where everything in nature
                                    has a price, and nothing has a
                                    value, including human life.</span></span></div>

                                    the same time, new forms of
                                    anti-capitalist and horizontal
                                    democratic resistance are emerging
                                    everywhere. There is reason to hope,
                                    as the basic question of who should
                                    own the Earth is coming to the fore.
