Bill McKibben on the Global Threat of Climate Change

In 1989, journalist and activist Bill McKibben published “The End of Nature” – a seminal book on the threat of global climate change. 30 years on, his new book has the sobering title, “Falter: Has the Human Game Begun to Play Out?” It ties together climate change with other, more recent, technological threats to our embattled species, and Bill joins the program to discuss where we go from here.
