Bill McKibben

It's scary to hear somebody this intelligent say that we are basically doomed.  Bill says that he sees major catastrophic problems in the near future and he says that we probably wont be able to stop them.  Between Bill and Roderick we have two extremes.  Roderick is looking for solutions, he thinks in the future we will make this earth into a better place like it used be.  Roderick doesn't see any major catastrophe's coming along anytime soon that will completely wipe the human race out.  Bill on the other hand talks as if something big, some huge force is going to come along and doom us all and we have no way in stopping it because the damage we have caused upon the Earth is already done and we cannot go back and change anything.
