But can the capitalist system that created the problem solve it? Can the media that fumbled the story for so long tell us what we really need to know? It’s time to connect the dots,and take action while there is still time.

This is because China has just surpassed the US to be the biggest carbon emitter on the planet. The same China that is self-declared to not be capitalist. It's a population/use issue, it has little to do with the economic system those people who use carbon-emitting resources live under.
