Earth is askew, teetering ever-further into irreversible damage. Technology no doubt helped get us into this mess, but it’s also a game-changer in our fight against the climate and ecological crises. Technologies that eliminate emissions and restore nature have the power to define tomorrow’s world. Journalist Tasmin Lockwood explores these big ideas, innovations, and ways to roll them out equitably through research and interviews with people across the climate and technology spectrum, collectively envisioning an optimistic blueprint of what life beyond 2050 could look like if we truly commit to the planet before it’s too late.
A small and informative book about what we should be doing to contain and revert the climate crisis and what role technology should play in it.
From the individual level, passing by communities, all the way to big corporations and nations, it explores the need for systemic change and to embrace the opportunities that technology can provide without only thinking about the economic impact, but most importantly, the impact in the world, nature and all living beings.
