SUMMARY:"Climate Solutions Beyond Capitalism" talk with author Tina Landis
DESCRIPTION:by Carolyn Classen\, blogger \n\n\n\nClimate Solutions Beyond Capitalism Book Event with Author Tina LandisSat\, Nov 1\, 2025 5:00pm – 8:00pm | US/Mountain\n\n\n\nLocation:The Historic Y Courtyard \n\n\n\nDescription \n\n\n\n“Despite unprecedented extreme weather\, droughts\, floods and fires increasing each year\, we see little to no action from capitalist leaders that match the urgency of the crisis. Actions must be taken immediately to end fossil fuel use\, restore ecosystems\, and transform our relationship with the planet to ensure humanity’s future. We collectively have the tools to reverse the crisis in one generation if we act now\, but capitalism — the very system that created the crisis — stands in the way of the transformations needed.”Contact: June WilliamsEmail:endofthemonth@proton.mePhone: 928-830-8804 \n\n\n\nLocation DetailsThe Historic Y Courtyard300 E University BlvdTucson AZ 85705 US
