what does this have to do with communism

I mean I know you're joking, but it does relate to communism!

Some Marxists have been advocating that we deindustrialize and go back to an agricultural way of life in order to save the planet from global warming. They insist that nothing can be done, that it is too late to change our ways, that technology won't save us, etc, and that the ONLY way for us to survive as a species is to stop burning any carbon NOW and to live simpler "happier" lives.

In reality, they are completely wrong (as usual). The technology will save us and there is a clearly defined path to success. That path doesn't necessitate deinustrialization and going back to a deprecated agricultural model of living.

The real reason Marxists try to leverage global warming fear in this way is because they know that their economic model results in only one thing - deep poverty and rampant starvation. So instead of just admitting this and moving to a more informed 21st century economics model, they cling to their religion and hide behind global warming as an excuse for why implementing Marxism has to necessarily collapse our global economy into a subsistence-level existence. Rather than say "yeah, Marxism does necessarily entail that we commit to a far simpler and deprecated lifestyle" they just say "we have to do this because of global warming"
