UC Berkeley Weinstock Lecture with Bill McKibben on The Deadly Trade in Oil and Gas
About this Event

Join Bill McKibben, Schumann Distinguished Scholar at Middlebury College, for a Weinstock Lecture on The Deadly Trade in Oil and Gas. 

This lecture will examine how the export of hydrocarbons, in particular, has become an enormous threat to efforts to rein in greenhouse gasses, and the role that America–the world’s biggest exporter of gas–plays in this ongoing catastrophe. It will also explore the role that non-tradable commodities–sunshine and wind–might play in easing this crisis.

This in-person event will be held at West Pauley Ballroom, ASUC Student Union, Martin Luther King Jr. Building - UC Berkeley Campus and will follow evolving public health guidelines
