Artists for the Climate: A Night with Wendell Berry, McKibben and Speth
We are honored to host Wendell Berry, one of the giants in environmental literature — along with writers Bill McKibben and Gus Speth — for a night of discussion, poetry and inspiration. They will be joined by noted authors and activists Terry Tempest Williams and Janisse Ray, as well as Rev. Lennox Yearwood of the Hip Hop Caucus.
Feel free to join in a live discussion with other viewers right here during the event. No registration required.

This file just seems to have a half-hour's worth of warm-up music. Any chance we can see the 2-hour event, itself?

Just following up to "add my vote" for posting the entire event if it's technically feasible — it was a really rare group of very smart folks you assembled — and it couldn't be more timely as we head for Copenhagen!

Because of an error with our vendor, we have not and will not be able to recover the video. We were able to capture the audio from the event, which can be accessed here:
