"Capitalism" is a descriptive model, not an entity with causal agency. Everything boils down to the intentions and actions of the human beings involved, and those do not change by paying lip service to a different body of abstract dogma.
To the extent that "capitalism" accurately describes the structural incentives and constraints inherent in the reality that these problems are manifesting in, then there is nothing other than "even more capitalism" on the table as a solution.
Problems can only be solved from within the world that generates them -- there is no "outside", as devotees of various dogmas often mistakenly think.
