Catch Bill McKibben on tour this September! He’ll be traveling coast-to-coast—before and after Sun Day 9/21—to talk about the power of the sun and how you can help make solar energy a reality. Bill is about to embark on a tour across the US to promote his new book, Here Comes the Sun, and you're invited! Check out all the dates and times on his website here. Some venues haven't posted registration or ticket info yet—check back on Bill's tour page for updates, and in the meantime, save the date!
Here Comes the Sun tells the story of the sudden spike in power from the sun and wind—and the desperate fight of the fossil fuel industry and their politicians to hold this new power at bay. From the everyday citizens who installed solar panels equal to a third of Pakistan’s electric grid in a year to the world’s sixth-largest economy—California—nearly halving its use of natural gas in the last two years, the book traces the arrival of plentiful, inexpensive solar energy.
Can't make it to an in-person event? Good news—Third Act is hosting a virtual book launch for Bill on August 26 at 7pm ET (6pm CT/5pm MT/4pm PT). You'll learn about the power of the sun and how you can help make solar energy a reality.
Finally, don't forget to do your homework before these events! Bill has been in the news recently—see below to read his latest articles, including a Third Act blog that shares why solar is a more viable option than nuclear power.
