A Desperate Moment, but an Exciting One: Can We Turn the Corner on Climate?

Free Lecture by Bill McKibben, founder of 350.org, the first global grassroots climate campaign who helped launch opposition to big pipeline projects like Keystone XL and advance the fossil fuel divestment campaign. McKibben’s book The End of Nature (1989) is regarded as the first book for a general audience about climate change and has been translated in 24 different languages. He’s gone on to write many more books, and his work appears regularly in periodicals from the New Yorker to Rolling Stone. He is a winner of the Gandhi Peace Prize and recipient of honorary degrees from 20 colleges and universities. And he is a Schumann Distinguished Scholar in Environmental Studies, Middlebury College.

This event is sponsored by the Greater Yellowstone Coalition, Gallatin Valley Community Radio, League of Women Voters of Montana and the League of Women Voters of the Bozeman Area, and the Montana Environmental Information Center with support from the Montana State University Ivan Doig Center and MOMS Clean Air Force.
