February 7 | noon – 2 pm
Extraction: The Frontiers of Green Capitalism with Thea Riofrancos. Will green capitalism save us from the climate crisis? “Clean” technologies and renewable energy are certainly growing sites of capitalist investment, with government policies playing a key role in making these sectors profitable. But the supply chains that produce the technologies pose vexing dilemmas for the energy transition.
