Hear author, educator, and environmentalist Bill
McKibben. “The Bill McKibben Reader” is out this spring from Holt
Paperbacks.
We’ll talk about ideas from his book “Deep Economy: The Wealth of
Communities and the Durable Future” as well as 350.org, his project to
encourage a global grassroots campaign on climate change.
Also we’ll talk about community radio, the predicament of “fighting,
not writing” and why nature writing is our century’s major
contribution to literature.
