Eco-socialism is a socialist ideology which states that in order to mitigate climate change and create a sustainable world, a socialist mode of production must be established, as capitalism cannot combat climate change.[1] Eco-socialists also typically advocate for a revolution, and they disregard reformist methods.[2]
There are also other ideologies which fit under the Eco-socialist term, such as Eco-Marxism and Eco-Leninism, both terms used interchangeably.

“Underlying all of Green Left's activities is the desire for an equitable, sustainable world, and the understanding that such a world cannot be achieved under capitalism. While the vision of Green Left is encapsulated in our founding statement, we are also in sympathy with the wider 'ecosocialist' movement across the world.”

“Attuned to the links between the exploitation of labor and the exploitation of the environment, ecosocialism stands against both reformist “market ecology” and “productivist socialism.” By embracing a new model of robustly democratic planning, society can take control of the means of production and its own destiny.”
