Bill will be speaking at Powell’s City of Books on Wednesday, September 17 at 7:00 p.m. as he launches his new book, Here Comes The Sun: The Last Chance for the Climate and a Fresh Chance for Civilization. This is a great setup for our Sun Day events across the state!
If you would like to see Bill McKibben, buy your tickets early! If Powell’s original venue sells out, they may move to a larger venue. Great publicity for our Sun Day events!
Every eighteen hours, the world puts up a nuclear power plant’s-worth of solar panels. At the same time, combustion continues to melt our poles, poison our bodies, and drive our global inequality. And it is no longer necessary: For the first time in 700,000 years, we know how to catch the sun’s rays and convert them into energy.
