In this Our Changing Climate climate change essay, I explore the perpetual war economy. Examining why the U.S. is always mired in conflict and war, I look at the driving forces of war as well as the human and environmental consequences of forever war.

Check out Half Earth Socialism here: https://www.half.earth/

In this Our Changing Climate climate change essay, I look at how and why socialism, specifically ecosocialism, is crucial to mitigating climate change and building a just and equitable world. Specifically, I look at how capitalism can not exist in harmony with the natural world by investigating the concept of "metabolic rift." I then unpack what exactly ecosocialism is through the examples of various authors and activists. Ultimately, a planned, rational, anti-imperialist, anti-colonial, and deeply democratic mode of production is the only path forward for true harmony with the natural world. That economic formulation is ecosocialism.
