About this ebook

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 The Camp Fire, which leveled the town of Paradise, killed 86 people after sparks from a poorly maintained transmission line owned by California power provider PGE met the surrounding brush. #2 To keep warming below 2°C, about four-fifths of fossil fuel reserves must not be dug up and burned. But companies’ valuation is premised on the expectation that everything they own will be sold and combusted. #3 The strategy of focusing on the lives of billions of people has shifted the debate away from the obvious: stopping the fossil fuels that cause climate change must be a priority. #4 To cap global warming at 1. 5°C, global coal, oil, and natural gas usage must decrease by 97, 87, and 74 percent by 2050, respectively. This will happen fastest in rich countries like the United States.
