Conversation on the Anthropocene with author Lydia Millet and conservationist Kieran Suckling

Join Extinction Rebellion NYC for our third "Conversation on the Anthropocene" with author Lydia Millet and conservationist Kieran Suckling as we discuss generational conflict, environmental activism, and how we can still save the planet we love.

A prolific author, Lydia Millet's newest novel, A Children's Bible, is a blistering tale of a group of young kids growing up on their parent's warming planet. With her dark humor and sharp existential wit, Lydia is one of the leading pioneers of environmental fiction, exploring the stories of our changing planet and of our changing selves.

In 1989, Kieran Suckling helped found the Center for Biological Diversity, dubbed by The New Yorker as "the most important radical environmental group in the country". Since its inception, using scientific studies, litigation, and media coverage, the Center has secured protection of over 700 endangered species and 475,000,000 acres of U.S. habitat.
