Hi all,

I’m seeing a lot of hate for capitalism here, and I’m wondering why that is and what the rationale behind it is. I’m pretty pro-capitalism myself, so I want to see the logic on the other side of the fence.

If this isn’t the right forum for a political/economic discussion-- I’m happy to take this somewhere else.

Cheers!

    The only reason we successfully banned CFCs, is because the more environmentally friendly replacement was cheaper.

    If the motivations for fighting climate change (or any problem, really) don’t align with the profit motive of the affected corporations, nothing will be done.
