Event Information
Join Bill McKibben, Schumann Distinguished Professor at Middlebury College for a Barbara Weinstock Lectures on The Deadly Trade in Oil and Gas.
This lecture will examine how the export of hydrocarbons, in particular, has become an enormous threat to efforts to rein in greenhouse gasses, and the role that America–the world’s biggest exporter of gas–plays in this ongoing catastrophe. It will also explore the role that non-tradable commodities–sunshine and wind–might play in easing this crisis.
