Bill McKibben Reviews Books on the Environment


The talented and damn-smart Bill McKibben (read his latest Deep Economy if you're interested at all in, say, the future of human existence) reviews several environmental and climate change books (including Bjorn Lomborg's Cool It: The Skeptical Environmentalist's Guide to Global Warming and Ted Nordhaus' and Michael Shellenberger's Break Through: From the Death of Environmentalism to the Politics of Possibility) care of the New York Review of Books via Grist (a groovy environmental news site based here in Seattle that's interesting and fun rather than dull and coma-inducing like many news sites can be).

Also note that McKibben's essay on the carbon crisis, entitled "Carbon's New Math" is the cover story in the October issue of National Geographic.
