Beehaw's community for socialists, communists, anarchists, and non-authoritarian leftists (this means anti-capitalists) of all stripes. A place for all leftist and labor news and discussion, as long as you're nice about it.
Non-socialists are welcome to come to learn, though it's hard to get to in-depth discussions if the community is constantly fighting over the basics. We ask that non-socialists please be respectful and try not to turn this into a "left vs right" debate forum by asking leading questions or by trying to draw others into a fight.

This is absolutely devastating, there's absolutely no doubt. When reading the article, though, I didn't understand why this is an article in this particular community. Maybe Saudi Arabia should provide more cooling methods, or not let too many people in?
Although climate change is, of course, caused by Western-style capitalism, it is by far not the only reason. China, a socialist country, is the world's largest coal producer and importer, and coal likely remains the bedrock of China's energy system for at least another decade.
I feel this is a well-researched article, but maybe the wrong community?
Nah, this is the right community for this article. climateandcapitalism is an ecosocialist publication and mitigating climate disaster is a key policy goal for most socialists, so it is important for us to observe the consequences of climate change and think about effective solutions for various communities.
Why has this been deleted then if I may ask?
better fit for the World News or Environmental sections, nothing more
