Mainly responsible for this development are the international supermonopolies which, in their pursuit of maximum profit, ruthlessly and against better knowledge brush aside the urgently necessary environmental protection and acutely required emergency measures. All those who do not want to perish in the global environmental catastrophe are challenged today, as never before, to take up a society-changing struggle. The book makes unmistakably clear: the rescue of humanity will be possible only in genuine socialism.
This book is the supplement to the book, Catastrophe Alert! What Is to Be Done Against the Willful Destruction of the Unity of Humanity and Nature?, published in 2014. The supplementary volume proves that many of the prognoses made then are becoming a reality faster than expected. We are in a race against time!
Stefan Engel, a trained mechanic and today a free publicist, was Chairman of the MLPD for 37 years. He has made his theoretical work and his practical know-how in the leadership of workers' struggles available to the revolutionary working-class movement for decades, also internationally. Since 1991 Stefan Engel is head of the editorial board of Revolutionärer Weg, the theoretical organ of the MLPD. He is recognized as a Marxist-Leninist theoretician throughout the world. Monika Gärtner-Engel is MLPD Internationalism Secretary, Main Coordinator of the revolutionary world organization ICOR, and Co-President of the United Front. She is co-author of the book, New Perspectives for the Liberation of Women, and a recognized representative of the international militant women's movement. Gabi Fechtner, a trained toolmaker, is MLPD Chairwoman since April 2017 and thus the first woman worker to lead a revolutionary party in Germany. She has already contributed to several publications in the collective of the editorial board of Revolutionärer Weg.
