...Karl Marx said that either we choose to follow a new method of economic organisation or capitalism will drown us all with its own contradictions, aptly summed up as "socialism or Barbarism"
Capitalism thrives through overproduction, which has terrible consequences for ecology, climate and human well being, sustainable consumption may not follow in socialisms footsteps (although I would argue that it has to in order to successfully live on a planet with finite resources) but it'll definitely have to redress some of the capitalist methods of production.
