Author and “environmentalist” Bill McKibben discusses the fossil fuel industry in this segment from the “Do the Math” national tour.
“Radicals work at places like TransCanada and Exxon. If you’re willing to make a hundred thousand dollars a day by altering the chemical composition of the atmosphere, then you’re engaged in a more radical act than anybody who’s ever come before you.”
Because he himself didn’t use ANY fossil fuels at the restaurants he ate at on this tour or the hotels he stayed in. Or heck, I’ll bet the electricity used to shine lights on him or to help him project his infinite wisdom to that audience was obviously from 100% renewable sources.
Who’s the real radical here?
Give me a break…
