Author: Bill Gates
11,16 €
How can the world reduce emissions while ensuring access to affordable energy and decent living conditions? Bill Gates approaches climate change through technology, economics, and the possibilities of collective action. The Czech-language eBook Jak zabránit klimatické katastrofě presents his plan for reaching net-zero emissions by 2050 and explains challenges across different parts of the economy.
The book covers electricity and materials production, agriculture, transportation, heating, and cooling. Price differences between emissions-producing practices and cleaner alternatives are an important tool for comparison. In the available opening, Gates also explains his personal journey from an interest in energy poverty to a concern with climate. The text is intended for a broad audience seeking to understand the technical and economic barriers to transformation. Its optimism rests on confidence in innovation, while the author openly describes the scale of the changes required.
Gates's book organizes the climate question around a practical issue: what needs to change for the economy to reach net-zero emissions? It connects energy, manufacturing, public policy, and the options available to individual readers.
