The realities of a green new deal from the world's foremost expert on climate technologies
§'As Chris Goodall explains, removing fossil fuels from our energy system is technologically feasible ... and we should take heart that these steps to fight climate change will also lead to large and immediate gains in our day-to-day health' Tim Harford
A carbon neutral future is possible - we have the technology to transform the global economy and guard against the worst effects of climate change. So how do we get to net zero?
In Possible, entrepreneur and climate tech consultant Chris Goodall tackles sixteen challenges that we must overcome in making a just transition to carbon neutrality. He explores the technologies that will solve these challenges - from changing how steel, cement and fuel are made, to locking carbon in healthy soils, and from green hydrogen storage to building climate-resilient homes. With case studies and success stories from entrepreneurs across the globe, Goodall illustrates the incredible potential of a Net Zero future, as well as the deter mination we will need to overcome these problems.
New tech featured includes Sweden's H2 Green Steel, California's Fortera cement substitute, Hong Kong garment-to-garment recycling, Finnish turbine company Coolbrook, Norwegian e-fuels, and Captura's innovative ocean CO2 capture.
Rezension:
We know how to make greener electricity and therefore cleaner cars. But it's harder to cut emissions from aircraft, shipping, cement-making and other sectors that are tougher to electrify. Harder, but still possible, writes clean energy expert Goodall, in a book that shows much progress is already being made 'Best summer books of 2024' Financial Times
