1. Corona and climate -- 2. Chronic emergency -- 3. War communism,

"The coronavirus pandemic and the climate crisis are inextricable. How can we strike at their shared roots?"
We cannot hope to overcome the social consequences of the pandemic without also addressing its origins. The virus emerged from human interactions with animals whose habitats had been ravaged. It then spread through networks of globalized trade and transportation. Driving the pandemic is capitalism's ravenous appetite and contempt for the natural world.
In Corona, Climate, Chronic Emergency, leading environmental thinker Andreas Malm demands that we adopt the state of emergency imposed to combat the virus and apply it on a permanent basis to the front lines of the climate crisis. He offers proposals as to how the climate movement should use this present emergency to make that case. There can be no excuse for inaction any longer.
