With less than 100 days to go to the United Nations Climate Conference COP26 in Glasgow<\/a>, action is being stepped up across Scotland to demand governments\u00a0 respond effectively to the challenge of climate change.<\/p>\n

Greenpeace’s Rainbow Warrior in Edinburgh July 2021<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Inspired by Greta Thurnberg’s school strike for climate movement, Fridays for the Future school students held a protest in Glasgow<\/a> on the final day of the Scottish school year in June.\u00a0 \u00a0July saw an occupation of the UK Government building in Edinburgh<\/a> by activists from Extinction Rebellion<\/a> and Friends of the Earth Scotland<\/a> to oppose the UK government’s<\/a> proposed licencing of a new Scottish oilfield, Cambo, off the shores of\u00a0 Shetland<\/a>.\u00a0 \u00a0Greenpeace organised for the iconic Rainbow Warrior ship to protest against the existing oil and gas facilities<\/a> in North East Scotland, with the demand for a Just Transition<\/a> for workers at the centre of the action.\u00a0 Climate Camp Scotlan<\/a>d activists gathered at the Mossmorran plant in Fife to demand the closure of one of Scotland’s largest contributors to carbon emissions and pollution by the Scottish government and it’s toothless Scottish Environmental Protection Agency (SEPA).<\/p>\n

Across all these campaigns, it is significant that young people in particular are at the centre of the actions, and that they are demanding workers rights, a just transition, and organising with local communities to put demands on government.<\/p>\n

Further action will follow in August and September as we near COP26.\u00a0 A Scottish ‘Climate Fringe Week<\/a>‘ takes place 18-26 September with protest meetings and events across the country, culminating in a protest action on the theme of ‘Peace and Climate’<\/a> on Sunday 26 September, the International Day of action against Nuclear Weapons, at the Faslane military base near Glasgow – home of the UK’s hated nuclear weapons’ system Trident.\u00a0 Young activists in Fridays for the Future are also discussing a global massive school strike on Friday 17 September [NB we understand this will now be 24 September – note added 5 Aug]<\/em>.<\/p>\n

In November, when the COP26 delegates arrive in Glasgow from the governments of the world<\/a>, they will face a massive protest march in Glasgow on Saturday 6 November<\/strong>, with synchronised marches in London and elsewhere in Britain and across the world.\u00a0 Friday 5 November will be not just a school strike but an encouragement for a global day of industrial action around climate, though realistically this is not likely to be a widespread general strike.\u00a0 A “Peoples Summit” on the climate crisis will take place from 7-9 November, both in Glasgow and online to enable participation globally.<\/p>\n

The COP26 Coalition<\/a> is uniting environmental and political campaigns around the UK and globally in a broad-based movement to support the need for action at the COP26 in Glasgow, and will be organising many events<\/p>\n

Severe Weather<\/h3>\n

The target of all these protests before and at the COP is the need for governmental action in the face of the increasingly severe weather events across the globe during 2021 – we have seen floods killing 100s in Europe<\/a>, heat waves in north America, floods in China, fires in Australia and elsewhere, as the world faces rising temperatures and the consequences of a human-made climate crisis.<\/p>\n

For decades, governments and establishment politicians have tried to claim that this is not happening or can be managed within existing policies.\u00a0 Now even the UK’s Meteorological Office has produced damning evidence<\/a> of the real impact of climate change in Britain.\u00a0 But politicians are still trying to peddle the illusion of ‘Net Zero’ – they advocate carrying on with producing carbon and putting off dealing with the problem to tomorrow, with the false promise of technologies that don’t exist yet or that can never be delivered.<\/p>\n

Global capitalism is anxious to maintain its profits and exploitation even if it risks destroying the entire planet.\u00a0 False solutions of ‘offsetting’ and proclaiming future Carbon Capture & Storage technologiesa re being used to promote the ‘Big Con<\/a>‘ of Net Zero, in reality putting necessary action off until ‘tomorrow’ while continuing with excessive carbon emissions today.\u00a0 \u00a0The solutions for ‘Real Zero’ are clear and have been known for decades: leave fossil fuels in the ground and switch rapidly and entirely to renewable energy to limit global temperature rises,\u00a0 stop producing waste and pollution by transforming production and usage of goods, create a just transition for workers, support the global south from the riches of the north, transform the global economy to one with environmental responsibility to nature at its core.<\/p>\n

Two Governments Failing<\/h3>\n

In Scotland, we have two governments apparently giving somewhat different messages.\u00a0 But both the SNP Scottish government and the Tory UK government are failing to live up to the challenges of the climate crisis.<\/p>\n

The Tory UK government, host of the COP26, wants to pretend that it is a ‘global leader’ in tackling climate change.\u00a0 The reality is very different, with the Tories backing fully their big business interests, for example expanding oil and gas extraction and even contemplating opening new coal and oil fields rather than shutting down the existing ones with full protection for workers jobs.<\/p>\n

\"\"
Peterhead XR activists highlight ‘greenwashing’ by Scottish and UK governments<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Despite their greenwashing, the SNP have long been backers of ‘Scotland’s Oil’ and their conferences are bedecked with big business sponsorship from aviation and oil interests.\u00a0 The Scottish government have published their own contribution to the Paris Agreement in the form of a ‘Indicative NDC’<\/a> [1].\u00a0 But despite the constitutional limitations of the current devolution arrangements, this still falls way short of the mark with a widespread failure to tackle adequately the areas of a just transition for oil and gas workers, roadbuilding, delivery of free public transport based on renewable energy, retrofitting homes, closing down polluters like the Mossmorran plant<\/a>, reduction of the aviation industry, agriculture and many other areas.<\/p>\n

The Scottish Green Party<\/a> and some in Labour<\/a> have rightly spoken out against the inadequacies of the SNP<\/a>, but there is also a danger of the Scottish Greens going the way of their German counterparts and in their haste to join government, risking compromising on their principles and the needs of the situation.\u00a0 The Labour Party under its new Starmer leadership seems to want to just follow Tory policies in the face of the crisis and not build on the Green New Deal promised by the previous Corbyn leadership.<\/p>\n

\"\"
The SNP under Alex Salmond, now of Alba Party, campaigned for an oil-based economy for Scotland<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Faced with the dislocation caused by a global pandemic, it is clear that the world and humankind need to ‘build back’ in a totally different way – one that respects nature and puts people and planet first.\u00a0 This means a direct challenge to capitalism and its institutions.\u00a0 But the alternative we need is not some reversion to the failed 20th century ‘communism’ or ‘socialism’ of the Stalinist or social democratic type.\u00a0 Nor do we just stand around talking about how we cannot do anything permanently until ‘the revolution comes’.<\/p>\n

Ecosocialism<\/h3>\n

What is needed is ‘ecosocialism<\/strong>‘ – bringing new thinking to the radical movement, both about the future and about the here and now … we need to have a vision for the future of a planet freed from capitalist exploitation and misery through ‘system change not climate change’, while at the same time building mass movements that can demand action from governments and win united support across the globe especially from young people who have most at stake.\u00a0 It’s a massive task but one that holds the future of the planet in its grasp.<\/p>\n

Ecosocialism is a global movement<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Why ecosocialist.scot?<\/h3>\n

ecosocialist.scot<\/a> is an initiative of an existing group of revolutionary ecosocialists and supporters of the Fourth International<\/a>, who feel the need to put a distinctive view forward in the current crises in Scotland.<\/p>\n

We will attempt to bring a modest contribution to filling the need for ecosocialist ideas with articles, often with a specific Scottish focus, about the global climate crisis, what ecosocialism means, and the battle against the exploitation of workers and championing the liberation of the oppressed.\u00a0 We will also put forward ideas about ways forward for both the environmental and workers movements in Scotland, and for the democratic right of the Scottish people for self-determination and independence.\u00a0 We support both the existing COP26 Coalition and the building of an anti-capitalist wing of the environmental movement to challenge governments across the world and put forward radical alternatives.<\/p>\n

As Scotland moves centre stage with the COP26, we hope that readers of ecosocialist.scot, in Scotland and around the world, will follow us, contribute ideas and join us in building a better … and ecosocialist … future!\u00a0 We look forward to meeting you in Glasgow in November 2021.<\/p>\n

NOTES<\/h5>\n
[1] ‘Indicative NDC’ – Nationally Determined Contribution is the technical term used by the United Nations in the Paris Agreement to set out a member state’s actions in reducing carbon emissions.\u00a0 Scotland is not a member state of the UN and hence not a ‘Party’ to COP.\u00a0 So, the Scottish government’s Draft NDC is entirely indicative and voluntary.\u00a0 The UK government would prefer the Scottish government to have nothing to do with the COP, as it sees it as a ‘sub-national’ entity subordinate to the overall UK government.\u00a0 \u00a0With an electoral mandate to seek independence from the UK state, albeit contested by the UK government, the Scottish government is seeking instead to assert its role as a ‘member-state-government-in-waiting’ at COP.\u00a0 Because the UK government has control over certain key aspects of carbon emissions, such as the regulation of the important offshore oil and gas industries, the Scottish government’s Indicative NDC at COP26 will always be weak.\u00a0 But on top of that the SNP-led Scottish government is politically weak and timid on setting out the drastic measures necessary to challenge climate change.\u00a0 An independent Scotland would open the opportunity for more radical action on the climate crisis that the SNP are unwilling to commit to for fear of losing support from big business and for inward capitalist investment.<\/h6>\n
