"Mr President, the Earth Summit that took place 20 years ago was the focus of the attention, concerns and hopes of many millions of people around the world. Twenty years later, following advances and setbacks, the concerns have deepened. The environment cannot be separated from everything else: society and the economy.
Today our biggest environmental problem is the existence of an economic and social system that is dominant at global level, and which Marx says either grows and accumulates or dies. A system that is constantly facing the limits of a world which, despite its generosity, is finite, and whose resources and vital processes often depend on a very delicate balance.
There is no point in trying to paint capitalism green. Capitalism’s inherent lack sustainability is what should be discussed in Rio next year. Current trade, agricultural, energy, industrial, economic and financial policy should also be discussed and questioned there."@en1
