Abstract
In June 2013, author, activist and academic Bill McKibben is visiting Australia and New Zealand as part of the Do the Maths tour. He has been discussing the [carbon bubble]((http://www.carbontracker.org/carbonbubble), fossil fuels, climate change, civil disobedience, and how we can get away from investing in coal. His call for divestment has been picked up by the Greens, with Christine Milne asking the Future Fund to stop its risky investment in coal industries. On Monday, McKibben appeared on an unruly episode of the ABCs Q & A, defending climate science against sceptic politician, Cory Bernardi. On Tuesday he appeared at the University of Sydney; on Wednesday, he presented at the Australian National University; and on Thursday, he discussed climate change in an address to the National Press Club.
