Language & Climate Strike (global environment movements,1)

For a political language activist the 20. September seems to be a promising day. Mankind can only solve the climate crisis globally, there is no other way. And here the two folded Janus-faced nature of language(s) is visible: Without language political communication and activation would not be possible, but the multitude of languages can prevent effective global action. At a first glance the situation in the year 2019 looks promising, because with Fridays for Future or 350.org (and others) there is a global movement. But global action for the environment is of course not a new phenomenon: the Earth Day (Wp) is one of the oldest events in connection with a (progressively) global environmental movement. However, looking at the urgency of the problems of global warming (Wp: Portal) or the massive loss of biodiversity (Wp), only to mention the most complex and urgent challenges. And a challenge it is and mankind is failing in spite of efforts of handling the crisis, which started in the 1990 with the Kyoto Protocol (Wp). But according to Naomi Klein, who published with "This change everything" a very substantial book about the shortcomings of the global environment movements, with includes Greenwashing (Wp) and a blind eye to extractivism (Wp). But her central hypothesis is that increasing (economic) Globalization is responsible for the increasing of the problems. Of course there are gains and measures successful in of environment protection, but it is not enough: The economic Globalization is eating up all the gains. And given the complexity of the problem, this comes not as a surprise. Niklas Luhmann was already warning 1986 (in an English translation 1989) of too easy solutions for the complex problems (the review of Klaus Krippendorf give an introduction into the problem). And language is a part of the problem too! How? In three ways:

1. The blocking English  countries
2. The difficulty to organize multiple political organizations (nations)
3. The different patterns of development 

 (1) It is not a coincidence that especially the central governments of the inner circle English countries (USA, UK and Australia, Canada is making an exception, for the concept Wp) are heavily blocking global environmental laws. The main reason is the Media in these countries. See W. Davies, Guardian to this problem also in relation to fake news  and the denial of climate change is one of the most influential fake news around.   
(2) Global states are still organized as if they were sovereign nations, which they are only to certain degree. Superpowers like the USA, Russia or China are of course more independent, but all countries are belonging to several international treaties and organizations. But decision-making process needs time, maybe too much time and they are organized for special political fields, there is no World parliament, which able to influence Global political issues.
(3) In a (almost) perfect world the Western countries, which are the main originators of the global warming, would enable a strong international Organization maybe the OECD ("climate change") to organize an effective international environment policy. But there are lots of other countries, partly very effected by the climate change, and the Western countries could be only the first countries, other have to follow and also here language policy is central.This is one of the reasons, why I am learning an African language now.
