The Thames Talbot Land Trust presents Bill McKibben this Friday, June 12 at 7pm at the Bessie Labatt Hall at King's College.

In 2007 McKibben published Deep Economy: the Wealth of Communities and the Durable Future. Bill McKibben urges us to see beyond "growth" and "more" as our primary economic ideals and to pursue prosperity in a more local direction, with cities, suburbs and regions producing more of their own food, generating more of their own energy and even creating more of their own culture and entertainment. We need to think about "deep economy" that takes human satisfaction and societal durability more seriously.
