Are alternative energies and Green New Deals enough to deliver
environmental justice? Peter Gelderloos argues that international
governmental responses to the climate emergency are structurally
incapable of solving the crisis. But there is hope. Across the world,
grassroots networks of local communities are working to realize their
visions of an alternative revolutionary response to planetary
destruction, often pitted against the new megaprojects promoted by
greenwashed alternative energy infrastructures and the
neocolonialist, technocratic policies that are the forerunners of the
Green New Deal. Gelderloos interviews food sovereignty activists in
Venezuela, Indigenous communities reforesting their lands in Brazil
and anarchists fighting biofuel plantations in Indonesia, looking at
the battles that have cancelled airports, stopped pipelines, and
helped the most marginalized to fight borders and environmental
racism, to transform their cities, to win a dignified survival.
