With climate change denial a dead letter, with many countries now deeply injured and a great majority of the world’s population concerned and seeking action, two programs have emerged to solve the crisis, one from the left, the other from Capital. Bill Resnick interviews Brian Tokar to compare the plans. The left’s program is more feasible, economical, reliable, and can be built out and operating within the ten years that science now finds necessary. Indeed it's the only path to save a human-habitable planet. Tokar is an activist, author, and a lecturer in Environmental Studies at the University of Vermont.  He is the author of The Green AlternativeEarth for Sale, and Toward Climate Justice.
