Bill McKibben: Falter


Listen Later

We’re talking to veteran climate activist and founding father of the fossil fuel divestment movement Bill McKibben about his book, ’Falter: Has the Human Game Begun to Play Itself Out?’. Bill chats about the climate crisis, Ayn Rand’s lasting influence, and why solar panels and direct action could still save the world.
