Attempt to mobilize older Americans (w/ Bill McKibben)

Skullduggery presents an episode of The Climate Crisis Podcast hosted by Yahoo News Senior Editors David Knowles & Ben Adler. In this episode, Adler talks to longtime environmental activist and journalist Bill McKibben about his newest venture: Third Act, an organization intended to mobilize older Americans in the fight against climate change and in defense of voting rights. McKibben tells Adler his thoughts on the outcome of the recent United Nations Climate Change Conference in Glasgow, Scotland, why he is trying to engage Americans ages 60 and older, and how he thinks climate activism must turn towards the private sector.GUEST:Bill McKibben (@billmckibben), Author, Educator, Environmentalist and founder of http://350.org and http://ThirdAct.org HOSTS: Ben Adler (@badler), Senior Climate Editor @YahooNews, Host of @Climate_Podcast David Knowles (@writerknowles), Editorial Senior Manager at @YahooNews, Host of @Climate_Podcast  RESOURCES:The Climate Crisis Podcast - Here.
