HOME: Don't Let Capitalism Destroy It is a reminder that the earth is the only home humanity has, and that the system ruling it is consuming its foundations. Capitalism depends on endless growth: profit must keep expanding, which means ever more extraction of oil, minerals, timber, water, and labor. Marx described how capitalism tears a rift in the relationship between human society and the natural world, exhausting the soil and the worker alike. That rift has now grown into a planetary crisis of rising temperatures, collapsing ecosystems, poisoned water, and the mass extinction of species.

The destruction falls hardest on those who did the least to cause it. Communities across the Global South face drought, floods, and failing harvests driven by emissions from the world's richest nations and corporations. Indigenous peoples who defend their forests and rivers are criminalized, displaced, and killed, and millions are being driven from their homes by climate disaster. Here in Los Angeles, the fires of January 2025 destroyed thousands of homes. In disaster after disaster, insurers, developers, and speculators move in to profit from the ruins while working families are pushed out.

Capitalism cannot solve a crisis it profits from. Green branding, carbon markets, and promises from fossil fuel companies have done nothing to stop the burning. Protecting our home means taking power away from the corporations and states that treat the earth as a resource to be used up. It means building a society organized around human need and the health of the planet rather than profit, led by the workers, peasants, Indigenous nations, and frontline communities already fighting for it. The earth can sustain us all, but only if we refuse to let capitalism destroy it.
