Bill McKibbens Podcast
Author Bill McKibben's, Eaarth is a very vivid and powerful writing. The title has important meaning; Eaarth was given two a's to show that the planet has drastically altered since its start. McKibben mentions issues involving environment, food sources, fossil fuels and other global impacting topics. There's a lot that's taken for granted by humans as far as Earth goes, and many are ignorant to the subjects brought up in this book. These are not typical things the average person talks or thinks about. Recently, an assignment was given on a bio-regional quiz and not many questions were relatable to the students. There is a problematic lack of knowledge when it comes to the planet, and McKibben's stresses this.
