Climate change, capitalism and science

The present essay aims to build another particular perspective - the reverse of history - in the current dominant discourse on the "fight against climate change". Its objective is to point out certain problematic aspects of this discourse, which must be carefully considered by the parts of the "small countries" (nonindustrialized or developing) in the world, in order to preserve the future of the "insignificant marginalized" of the planet. Such problematic aspects are related to certain statements that make the "fight against climate change" a purely scientific (natural science) and technical issue. Against this, it is argued that, in the fight against climate change, other sciences (social and human) must and can contribute to seeing those aspects not seen or explained by (natural) science and the technology that accompanies it. The ultimate goal, then, is to help avoid the optimism and ingenuity of the so-called "fourth industrial revolution".
