Scientists: Capitalism needs to die

This piece explores the recent "paper [that] was written by biophysicists with the BIOS Research Unit in Finland who were asked by the U.N. to contribute research for the U.N. Global Sustainable Development Report (GSDR), which will be released in 2019." They argue that current economic theories like modern capitalism are inadequate. New economic models are required.

Our survival will require unprecedented action based on such an alternative. And that will require government policy intervention to implement such a model. They encourage progressive States to take the lead, as indeed they are like CA in the US. But it will also require national environmental policy, and for that we need to vote the polluting political fossils out.
