McKibben's "Eaarth" Podcast

Bill McKibben's "Eaarth" podcast focuses on how the world today differs from life less than a century ago. People today live on a different planet than the one rotating the sun when these same individuals were born. McKibben believes the Earth has hit the limit on growth and this excessive development is the root of many problems evident today. Everything has become very global and connected, as opposed to the localized lifestyle lived by humans only decades ago. McKibben asserts that society needs to regress, slow down, and find stability and solidity.
