Environmental Book Group Discussion: “Here Comes the Sun,” by Bill McKibben
The Conservation Commission and the Perrot Memorial Library invite you to a discussion of Here Comes the Sun, by Bill McKibben. The program will be held on Wednesday, September 30, at 7 pm, in the Program Room, Radcliffe Building, Perrot Library.
In Here Comes the Sun, climate activist Bill McKibben explores the rapid rise of solar and wind energy as a powerful, accessible alternative to fossil fuels. Highlighting global progress and grassroots efforts, he shows how renewable energy offers not just a path out of the climate crisis but a chance to build a fairer, more democratic world. Despite resistance from the fossil fuel industry, McKibben argues that this solar revolution is our best hope for a sustainable future.
