Socialism (the collective ownership of the means of production by society), an alternative system to capitalism (the private ownership of the means of production by individuals or corporations) is better than capitalism in that it allows everyone in society, regardless of social status, to have access to the basic necessities of life (housing, food, healthcare, etc).

There's no reason why we can't have collective ownership of the means of production and a safe and healthy environment.
