The last ditch effort for a working climate

As the annual Hesburgh Lecturer, Bill McKibben will take the planet's temperature in the wake of recent events.

The Paris climate accords, the papal encyclical on the climate and the hottest year ever measured on the planet are discussed.

Widely considered “America’s most important environmentalist," Mckibben is the founder of 350.org.

Under his leadership, the site spearheaded the successful resistance to the Keystone Pipeline.

As well, that team organized the 400,000 strong NYC Climate March and launched the fast-growing fossil fuel divestment movement, now at $3.4 trillion.

Sponsored by the Kroc Institute for International Peace Studies.
