Bill McKibben is one of the nation's best known environmental activists and authors, whose book "The End of Nature" in 1989 first alerted the American public to global warming. Since then, he has become one of the nation's leading environmental activists opposing fossil fuel excesses, mountain clearing for coal, the natural gas industry and other greenhouse gas technologies increasing the pace of global warming.
Bill is the creator of the 350 Organization movement, a national grassroots movement to mobilize the population to exert the pressure on our elected officials to move more diligently and aggressively on global warming and the global tipping points upon us.
Bill's lastest book is, "Eaarth: Making A Life on a Tough New Planet". Yes, there are supposed to be two of the letter "a."
