• Bill McKibben: Sustainable Economics, Solar Energy, and the Race against Climate Change

  Dive into a captivating conversation with environmentalist Bill McKibben, founder of Third Act and author of The End of Nature and Here Comes the Sun, as we explore the emerging potential of sustainable economics. Bill explains how the global economy must adapt to renewable energy, and why rapid solar expansion in places like California and China signals a pivotal moment in our energy systems. We discover how climate solutions can support both economic growth and sustainability, while also recognizing that the window to act is closing. This conversation offers both practical insights and a grounded sense of hope for how communities, nations, and economies can transition toward a sustainable, equitable future through regenerative energy solutions.
