Does it worry you at all when the New York Times review of 'This Changes Everything' praises you as "pragmatic" for not challenging the existence of capitalism? Do you actually believe a reformist uprising can thwart the environmentally ruinous logic of capitalism indefinitely? Would not your book be more accurately titled, 'This Changes Nothing: The Status Quo vs. Some Temporary Reform', as you shy away from the only enduring solution, the end of capitalism?
