Bill McKibben podcast interview
March 14, 2008 at 8:10 am by Thomas Wheatley in News
Noted environmentalist and writer Bill McKibben, when not organizing visually stimulating demonstrations to wake up politicians and the populace to the threat of global warming, writes best-selling books about everything from the environment to alternative energy to how the information age has impacted our collective and personal identity. He also founded Step It Up 2007, a grassroots advocacy group that’s met with success in getting out the message about global warming’s impact. McKibben was gracious enough to speak with me over the phone from his Vermont home. Click below to hear about where the nation stands in terms of what we’re doing, how metro Atlanta’s existence as a sprawling monster has hurt more than just the environment, and who he’s supporting for president in November. (Hint: It’s a Democrat.) Most importantly, McKibben talks about what we can do.

Hi, bonjour,
One question: could you tell me what equipment you are using to record a phone interview?
Do you eventually use skype?
Thank you

Bonjour. Yes, we used Skype, which works great. If you’d like to hear about the specific equipment I can see what I can find out about you. Send me an e-mail at thomas.wheatley@cln.com if you’d like help.
