Oil spills, fracking, super storms - more and more the product of the for profit system is pushing the environment towards a destructive tipping point that is threatening the very existence of life on Earth. 

At the same time, the very corporations causing this destruction are making record profits and the politicians are putting forward half measures that will do little to save the planet. What is really needed?

Come join Socialist Alternative to talk about how a socialist transformation of society could fundamentally overturn both the exploitation of people and the planet.
