A Crisis Inside a Crisis: What Covid Might Teach Us About Dealing With Climate
There are no silver linings to a pandemic, but if we're going to go through this kind of trauma we might as well learn some things--here's my sense of what we should be thinking about as we come out of quarantine. Reality is real, since we've delayed so long, speed now matters, and solidarity is most important of all. -- Bill McKibben
Around the world, weary people in many countries have begun to chart the promising slide of daily coronavirus cases and deaths—but the other crisis curves on our planet—the endless rises of temperature and carbon-dioxide concentration—show no such mercy. As the world draws more and more parallels between the COVID-19 and climate crisis, Bill McKibben's message of equity and justice resonates as we work towards solutions that effectively combat both crises simultaneously. Join NAZCCA, Fridays For Future, and Bill McKibben for an online talk and Q&A session.
