Tishman Auditorium
66 West 12th Street, (between Fifth and Sixth Aves)

Admission is free.
Join the Tishman Environment and Design Center for a presentation by
renowned environmentalist Bill McKibben, founder of climate change
nonprofit 350.org. McKibben, a longtime environmental advocate and
author of numerous books on issues of environment and nature, will
talk about the consequences of climate warming and the immediate need
to reduce carbon emissions. A Q&A moderated by Parsons Dean Joel
Towers will follow.
This event is a prelude to 350.org's International Day of Climate
Action on Saturday, October 24, a series of rallies and awareness-
raising creative actions across the globe which will serve as a visual
petition for change to be presented in Copenhagen this December, when
the world's nations meet to agree on a new climate treaty.
