Bill McKibben helped found 350.org, the first global grassroots climate campaign, which has organized protests on every continent. He played a leading role in launching the opposition to big oil pipeline projects like Keystone XL, and the fossil fuel divestment campaign, which has become the biggest anti-corporate campaign in history, with endowments worth more than $40 trillion stepping back from oil, gas, and coal.
