比爾 · 蓋茲親筆揭露改變未來的新思考、新科技與新經濟
「我寫這本書不只是因為看到氣候變遷的問題,還因為我看到了解決問題的機會。」
啟發商業世界全面轉型的革命性巨作
已售出全球30多國版權
走過不安的2020年,未來十年最關鍵的議題是什麼?
「我們可以做既能挽救新冠疫情中受創的經濟、又能激發創新來避免氣候災難的事。
這本書要講的就是我們必須採取什麼行動,以及我認為我們做得到的原因。」
如果淨碳排不歸零,你我所擁有的一切可能隨時歸零!
在這本書中,比爾.蓋茲將告訴你:經濟成長和零碳創新的新交集是什麼。他提出一套涵蓋層面極廣、但每一步都切實可行的計畫,希望把溫室氣體排放量全面減到零,挽救人類免於一場迎面而來的氣候浩劫。
比爾.蓋茲花了十年潛心研究氣候變遷的原因與效應,在物理、化學、生物、工程、政治、金融等各領域專家的協助下,努力尋找阻止地球失速滑向環境災難的方法。在這本書中,他深入淺出地解釋了為什麼我們別無選擇,一定要努力減到淨零排放,也詳細說明要達到這個重大目標,哪些是我們非做不可的事。
書中清晰描述了人類所面臨的艱鉅挑戰,清楚指出在哪些方面目前科技已有零碳方案、哪些領域的現有科技該如何發揮更大效益,還有哪裡需要創新的技術突破,又是哪些人在從事這些重要研究。
最後,他提出一套以全面減到零排放為目標的具體可行計畫,從政府的政策、企業的行為,到個人可以採取的行動,為全面減到零排放的艱鉅任務帶來新希望。
誠如比爾.蓋茲在書中一再強調,全面減到零排放不是一件容易的事,但只要能遵循書中所提出的計畫,目標雖難,一切仍在掌握之中。
#1 NEW YORK TIMES BEST SELLER • In this urgent, authoritative book, Bill Gates sets out a wide-ranging, practical—and accessible—plan for how the world can get to zero greenhouse gas emissions in time to avoid a climate catastrophe.
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 to 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.
