摘　　要：Mainstream economics attributes climate change to negativeexternalities of carbon emissions and the lack of climate propertyrights. Although market-based strategies such as emission tradingare widely implemented under the guideline of mainstream economics, there is no evidence that the accelerating trend of globalwarming has been contained. Marxian economists criticise thetheoretical point of departure of the mainstream perspectiveabout climate change and climate governance, and propose analternative analytical framework focussing on the relationshipbetween climate and capital accumulation. Following the Marxianperspective, we discuss the subject, nature, strategy, and possibility of a popular climate movement that could serve as an alternative to the existing mainstream climate governance.
