>>7883850Marx is known for his work in critisisms of capitalism rather than his ideas on where to go after capitalism or his ideas of a post capitalist society. It doesn't matter how much he contributed to environmentalism because the work of Marx is just one area of anti-capitalist thought; there are plenty of capital abolitionists that aren't inspired by Marx (and many are not even communists) so I don't know how Marx not writing much on ecology means "communism is a system of infinite growth" because Marx never went in depth about life under communism or how things would work; his work is popular because of his analysis of capitalism on society. Communist production wouldn't be done for the sake of growth like capitalism does (where the idea is to literally just grow), it would be done to fufil the need of communities, so even if eccology was not taken into account, the growth should be far less than what done under capitalism and be far less destructive to the environment.
