Climate Change and Social Dislocation

Christian Parenti talks with Bill Resnick about his latest book Tropic of Chaos: Climate Change and the New Geography of Violence.  It traces
·       the collapse of many countries under the pressures of neo-colonialism and neo-liberalism that extract resources and   keep the nations impoverished,
·       militarism and the prevalence of weapons and highly armed thuggery,
·       misrule by kleptocratic elites, and
·       climate change, that the Pentagon calls a "threat multiplier."

The whole ensemble combines to threaten civilization as we know it. Parenti outlines some policies that might work to avoid that fate.
