While the authors' analysis of a new bill proposed by liberal senators mostly suggests that this is only another ruling class ploy to keep environmentally concerned people committed to the Democratic party, the authors leave the reader with the impression that a "radical environmental movement" can change policies that a capitalist ruling class must promote to sustain itself. It appears that the socialist authors have also succumbed to the neoliberal maxim that "there is no alternative".

Affirming anything less than that is engaging in pure fantasy; and with time running out, humanity can no longer afford such fantasies.
