What Happened to Bill McKibben?

"Environmentalism has been successfully mainstreamed, at the cost of its soul. This co-opted version isn’t about protecting the landbase from the ever-expanding empire of humans. It’s about sustaining the comfort levels we feel entitled to without exhausting the resources required. It is entirely human-centered and hollow, and it serves corporate capitalism well."

As the Planet Burns: Hot Air, Photo Ops and Bill McKibben’s “Greenest” City

"The New York myopia and narcissism of the sham Climate warrior Bill McKibben was also stunningly revealed. First McKibben tweeted this drivel on Oct. 29th: “Obviously no place deserves this kind of storm — but NYC, America’s greenest city, in some ways deserves it least of all.” Yep, “greenest” if you ignore the millions of serfs (both carbon-based and carbon-powered) providing the food, other necessities and consumer junk trucked in by fossil fuel on a 24/7/365 basis; if you ignore the massive coal-generated kilowattage; the trash dumping in the ocean; a once-great ecosystem with dozens of creeks, swamps and diverse forest now reduced to an ecosystem dominated by three species: humans, rats and roaches – with bedbugs making a run as the new scourge as feverishly reported recently in the New York-centric media; if you don’t notice the concrete, glass, steel and invasive species replacing the natural habitat, etc."

Three Responses to Bill McKibben’s Article, “Global Warming’s Terrifying New Math”

"To eliminate fossil fuels, you have to transform the system that empowers the fossil fuels industry. In diversity is strength, any ecologist knows this, and our movements for change are no exception. The more we understand that the roots of the issues we are fighting are intertwined, the better we can cooperate to change the system driving them."
