Video: Climate Change ft. Al Gore and Bill McKibben
The arc of the physical universe is short and it bends towards heat. If we do not win quickly, we won’t win at all. — Bill McKibben
Al Gore (An Inconvenient Truth), Bill McKibben (350.org), Cheryl Johnson (People for Community Recovery), Eric Holthaus (The Future Earth), Nathaniel Rich (Losing Earth), and Majora Carter (Sustainable South Bronx) discuss the structurally unjust systems that cause climate change, industrial civilization and Earth's ecology, renewable resources, and the reasons why this is the fight of our time.
