Threshold Conversations: Bill McKibben

February 1, 2021 | Amy Martin | Threshold

The word crisis comes from the Greek krisis; one of its meanings is “the turning point in a disease.” Today on Threshold Conversations, we sit down with Bill McKibben to talk about the dual crises of climate change and the coronavirus pandemic, what we’re learning in the 2020s, and what he sees as the task of the moment: to try. Are we at a turning point? And if so, which way are we headed?

Bill McKibben is an author, activist, and founder of 350.org.

Threshold is a public radio show and podcast that tackles one pressing environmental issue each season. Launched in 2016, Threshold has received a Peabody Award nomination, a national Edward R. Murrow Award, and a citation from the Overseas Press Club among other honors.

Threshold Conversations features interviews with environmental thought leaders on important issues impacting cultures, communities, and ecosystems in the United States and beyond. These conversations aim to create space for thoughtful, civil conversations about the urgent environmental issues we’re living with today.

Threshold Conversations is supported by the International Women’s Media Foundation’s Howard G. Buffett Fund for Women Journalists, Montana Public Radio, Park Foundation, High Stakes Foundation, and Threshold’s listeners.
