Sinossi
In questo libro urgente e autorevole, Bill Gates espone un piano ampio, pratico e accessibile su come il mondo può arrivare a zero emissioni di gas serra in tempo per evitare una catastrofe climatica. Bill Gates ha trascorso un decennio a indagare sulle cause e gli effetti del cambiamento climatico. Con l'aiuto di esperti nei campi della fisica, della chimica, della biologia, dell'ingegneria, delle scienze politiche e della finanza, si è concentrato su ciò che deve essere fatto per fermare la discesa del pianeta verso un certo disastro ambientale. In questo libro, non solo spiega perché dobbiamo lavorare per raggiungere emissioni nette zero di gas serra, ma descrive anche nel dettaglio cosa dobbiamo fare per raggiungere questo obiettivo profondamente importante. Ci offre una descrizione lucida delle sfide che dobbiamo affrontare. Basandosi sulla sua comprensione dell'innovazione e di ciò che serve per immettere nuove idee sul mercato, descrive le aree in cui la tecnologia sta già aiutando a ridurre le emissioni, dove e come la tecnologia attuale può essere resa più efficace, dove sono necessarie tecnologie rivoluzionarie e chi sta lavorando a queste innovazioni essenziali. Infine, espone un piano concreto e pratico per raggiungere l'obiettivo delle emissioni zero, suggerendo non solo le politiche che i governi dovrebbero adottare, ma anche cosa possiamo fare noi come individui per far sì che il nostro governo, i nostri datori di lavoro e noi stessi si assumano le proprie responsabilità in questa impresa cruciale. Come spiega chiaramente Bill Gates, raggiungere le emissioni zero non sarà semplice o facile, ma se seguiremo il piano che espone qui, sarà un obiettivo saldamente alla nostra portata.
