"Bill McKibben" Wikipedia (via DBPedia)
Bill McKibben is an American environmentalist and writer who frequently writes about global warming and alternative energy and advocates for more localized economies. Beginning in the summer of 2006, he led the organization of the largest demonstrations against global warming in American history. McKibben is active in the Methodist Church, and his writing is sometimes spiritual in nature. Al Gore wrote in 2007 that "when I was serving in the Senate, Bill McKibben’s descriptions of the planetary impacts... made such an impression on me that it led, among other things, to my receiving the honorific title 'Ozone Man' from the first President Bush. ” McKibben grew up in suburban Lexington, Massachusetts. As an undergraduate at Harvard University, he was president of the Harvard Crimson newspaper. Immediately after college he joined the The New Yorker as a staff writer and wrote much of the Talk of the Town column from 1982 to early 1987. He quit the magazine when its longtime editor William Shawn was forced out of his job, and soon moved to the Adirondack Mountains of upstate New York. He currently resides with his wife, writer Sue Halpern and his daughter, Sophie, who was born in 1993, in Ripton, Vermont. He is a scholar in residence at Middlebury College, where he also directs the Middlebury Fellowships in Environmental Journalism. He is also a fellow at the Post Carbon Institute.

I had this book for one of my classes. In my opinion he's a bit of a socialist. With all his talk about taking care of the community. I really did enjoy the chapter about hyper-individualism though. He makes a lot of good points, but isn't that great of a book. Like you said he doesn't have many core sources, just his first hand accounts which I think are always helpful, but he needs more to make this book great.

I'd certainly recommend "The End of Nature" and "The Age of Missing Information". Check Amazon for other titles, but I'd say these are his two most 'popular' titles.

I did a www.dogpile.com search and found a few hits, but nothing promising, at: http://www.dogpile.com/info.dogpl/search/web/thesis%252BBill%252BMcKibben%252527s%252BDesigner%252BGenes%25252C%252Bpublished%252BOrion%252B2003/1/-/1/-/-/-/1/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/417/top/-/-/-/1 I suggest asking your public library's 'research librarian,' to see if he/she can find it.

Try this: "Bill McKribben's article offers valuable information to help raise awareness about the serious issue of global warming." Your original sentence wasn't incorrect, but it was a bit awkward. Sometimes, it helps to add a few extra words to smooth the flow. I think the two words that end in "-ness" so close together also made it sound awkward.

Yeah, I definitely prefer to be a locavore. I live in southern California, and there's no excuse not to eat locally grown food here. The growing season is year-long and there are various farmers markets every day of the week in the LA area. Even better yet: I try to grow my own food. I've got broccoli and lettuce in the side yard. The broccoli leaves make great wraps for tofu scramble! (okay, i buy tofu and it's not locally grown) I'm a renter and am lucky to have a very small plot of land to grow things on. I can't wait to have my own house and yard with fruit trees and a bigger vegetable garden! Thank you for the book recommendation!
