McKibben is what long-time volunteer activists describe as a corporate environmentalist - - he's spent much if not most of his time giving speeches at tasty luncheons, brunches and dinners before various corporate audiences, much the same as James Howard Kunstler - - and neither one of them has ever made a dent into such audiences, not surprisingly! McKibben still believes Hillary Clinton is a liberal (within a year of leaving the presidency, the Clintons were worth a cool $100 million, and that did not come from his giving speeches). Probably doesn't realize that Al Gore's multi-billion dollar hedge fund which he started with his two Goldman Sachs buddies won't have any effect on pollution. This guy is a clown. Not a completely misleading type like a Jeremy Rifkin or Noam Chomsky, but also not a serious heavyweight.
