Bill McKibben

Today, I attended a fireside chat at Tufts University, with Bill McKibben and Julian Agyeman. Agyeman is a Tufts professor focusing on environmental justice. McKibben is the author of 1989’s The End of Nature and the founder of 350.org, possibly the most influential climate activist groups around. They didn’t mince words around the depth of the crisis we’re in or the extreme actions that’ll need to be taken. I also used the opportunity to track down a couple of contacts at Tufts, to see if it would make sense to coordinate activities a little bit more.
