As the economy weakens and job losses mount many wonder what the possibilities are for regulating growth and limiting climate change. Is this a progressive moment as Namoi Klein has said? And if it is, are progressives ready to seize the moment?

And if we don’t make a better world now, we may destroy the one we live in.
