Join us at Ecosocialism Conference 2024 (London and online)
It’s Ecosocialism or barbarism.
2024 has witnessed a further acceleration in the environmental crisis. The environment humanity shares continues to be under attack on land, sea, and air by a global capitalist economy that requires constant accumulation and growth, irrespective of the cost to the natural world.
We need to remove those in power that are recklessly plundering our natural environment just as much as they exploit us for profit.
We have to challenge the conspiracy theories of the far right and their climate change denial.
This is why we urgently need a mass movement around the climate, in our workplaces, communities, towns and cities, uniting people across the world to end the ecocide on the planet being caused by capitalism.
We also need to fight for a vision of the future where we can provide for all humans in a sustainable way. A post-scarcity world where we can meet human needs for everyone within planetary limits.
Last year’s Ecosocialist Conference in London had 150 people attending. This year we want to make it bigger and better and are inviting you to take part, to be part of organising this movement. We are organising another conference with some amazing speakers on important topics to educate and inform and help us begin to organise.
But we don’t just want conference attendees, we need a movement and organisation if we are going to win. If you would like to be involved we are holding a fortnightly online organising committee to plan the conference and also what comes afterwards.
