I wondered, as we began to speak, how he then came to move to the mountains and publish The End of Nature when he was still in his 20s. He edited the Harvard Crimson and then landed a coveted job at William Shawn’s New Yorkermagazine. He’s written that “how well we control our numbers, our appetites, and the efficiency with which we satisfy those appetites … are the battles for our time, as morally compulsory as the battles for civil rights or against totalitarianism.”īill McKibben grew up in Toronto and suburban Boston and went to Harvard. From early writing on ecology, he moved to an interest in local economies, consumer culture, neighborliness, and family size. Bill McKibben’s books and essays of the past two decades have both shaped and mirrored the way our cultural perspective has developed as we’ve come to see the human affect on the environment as part of the whole picture of life and lifestyle. He’s a scholar in residence at Middlebury College in Vermont and the founder of 350.org, a global climate campaign named after what scientists deem the safe level of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, 350 parts per million. TIPPETT: Bill McKibben is one of the most insightful and esteemed figures of our time on matters of the environment. Today, Bill McKibben on “The Moral Math of Climate Change.” So we’ll seek foundational knowledge we can trust that Bill McKibben has gathered in two decades of being ahead of this curve, and we’ll explore the evolution of his moral imagination and his action from a focus on personal responsibility to a sense that what might save the planet would also renew the skill of neighborliness and the meaning of human community.įrom American Public Media this is On Being, public radio’s conversation about religion, meaning, ethics, and ideas.

McKibben wrote The End of Nature, the first book on climate change for a general readership, in 1989. This hour, with Bill McKibben, we seek perspective, both factual and moral, on human responsibility in a changing natural world. But I think that we retain the capacity to do it in elegant and graceful ways.
We’re going to have no choice but to adapt, whether it’s gracefully or in violent and ugly fashion to that demand of basic bottom line of the planet. It’s really not the real negotiation underway is between human beings on the one hand and physics and chemistry on the other. BILL MCKIBBEN: The negotiation that’s underway, we think is between China and the U.S. We’ll explore his perspective on knowledge we can trust as we orient our minds and lives to changing realities of the natural world. Today, Bill McKibben on “The Moral Math of Climate Change.” He authored the first popular book on climate change in 1989 and is one of the most insightful figures of our time on ecology and life.
