Noam Chomsky nails Manchester’s climate activism problems. In a 1971 interview

“As to the future, I’m reluctant to guess. The movement, so-called, has developed no self-sustaining organizational forms or clear intellectual vision that expresses the understanding, or even the mood of the vast number of mostly young people who feel themselves to be part of it or at least drawn to its fringes.”
