THE SOLUTION WE HAVE AND THE BREAKTHROUGHS WE NEED

BILL GATES

Bill Gates has spent a decade investigating the causes and effects of climate
change. With the help of experts in the fields of physics, chemistry, biology,
engineering, political science, and finance, he has focused on what must be
done in order to stop the planet's slide toward certain environmental disaster. In
this book, he not only explains why we need to work toward net-zero emissions
of greenhouse gases, but also details what we need to do to achieve this
profoundly important goal.


He gives us a clear-eyed description of the challenges we face. Drawing on his
understanding of innovation and what it takes to get new ideas into the market,
he describes the areas in which technology is already helping to reduce
emissions, where and how the current technology can be made to function more
effectively, where breakthrough technologies are needed, and who is working on
these essential innovations. Finally, he lays out a concrete, practical plan for
achieving the goal of zero emissions-suggesting not only policies that
governments should adopt, but what we as individuals can do to keep our
government, our employers, and ourselves accountable in this crucial enterprise.

As Bill Gates makes clear, achieving zero emissions will not be simple or easy
to do, but if we follow the plan he sets out here, it is a goal firmly within our
reach.
