This video leaned very heavily on Andreas Malm’s book Fossil Capital. Check it out here: https://www.versobooks.com/products/135-fossil-capital
In this Our Changing Climate climate change video essay, I look at how fossil fuel extraction and capital accumulation intertwine into fossil capital. Specifically, I look at the accumulation of capital throughout the industrial world has always been underpinned by fossil fuel emissions. Today, in the age of imperialism, fossil fuels and carbon emissions have facilitated the hyper-exploitation of workers globally, all in the name of profits and capital accumulation. The end result of this relationship is climate change and massive emissions output.
