Reading Group: Climate Change and Capitalism

Selby Library, Sarasota

Members of the Industrial Workers of the World in Sarasota will be hosting a reading group to discuss this important matter and what we can do about it. Please join us in the conference room of the Selby Library on Saturday, June 1st at 2pm.

We've chosen a set of readings below so that we all have a basis for starting the conversation, but we encourage anyone who would like to contribute to join us, even if you don't have a chance to read the materials. We have the room reserved until 4 pm, and would be happy to continue the discussion in the weeks and months ahead with those interested.
