WHAT WE NEED TO DO NOW FOR A ZERO CARBON FUTURE

The UK has declared a 'climate emergency' and pledged to become carbon neutral by 2050. Drawing on actions, policies and technologies already emerging around the world, this book sets out how to meet this goal, such as: building a huge over-capacity of wind and solar energy; using hydrogen to fuel our trains, shipping, boilers and heavy industry; eating plant-based alternatives to meat; paying farmers to plant and maintain woodlands; making aviation pay its way; using biochar to lock carbon in the soil. This is what we need for a green new deal.
