It’s not enough to be right! The climate crisis, power, and the climate movement
The demands of the climate movement ‐ for rapid and profound change ‐ are based on scientific findings and the political commitments to theParis Agreement.The activists are, therefore, factually “right”. However, being right is not enough to justify or to accelerate the practical implementation of knowledge and decisions. We explain which social factors are at work, and how the climate movement can benefit if they incorporate these factors into actions for social change.
