But they are solvable. We are not doomed. We can build a better future for everyone. Let's turn that opportunity into reality.---------------------------------------‘A book for anyone who finds it difficult to believe in a better future’ THE TIMES‘I hope people around the world read this book, understand our planet isn’t a lost cause, and get inspired to help fix it’ Bill GatesA STYLIST BEST NON-FICTION 2024 * A GUARDIAN BIGGEST FICTION AND NON-FICTION FOR 2024 * A WATERSTONES ‘BOOK YOU NEED TO READ IN 2024’
