We have seen our Earth teeter on the brink of ruin
We have heard the warnings of scientists
And we know where the blame lies:
It is with the 100 companies
That are responsible for 70% of global pollution
It is with the billionaires
Who got rich polluting our rivers and pumping out carbon
It is with an economic system
That puts the profits of the rich above the needs of the people
So make no mistake about it
The climate crisis is a capitalist crisis
And the climate struggle is a class struggle across borders
Whether you're in Coventry or Canberra, Doncaster or Delhi
If you are working class you will suffer the worst effects of floods, fires, droughts and devastation
While the rich build ever-higher walls to protect themselves
That is what is coming
That is what is coming unless we take bold action
That is what will happen unless we unite working people across borders to say that our lives are more important than anyone's profits
It is what will happen
Unless we put the power in the hands of the working class
To put people and planet first
