Not all the news about climate change is bad. Scientists and entrepreneurs around the world are making rapid progress in working out how to keep the economy moving at the same time as reducing greenhouse gases. Could giant solar farms in the Sahara provide all of Europe’s electricity? Can we really expect to make petrol from wood and straw? Could burying charcoal help solve global warming? And can green energy actually help to revive the world economy? Combining cutting-edge analysis and the fascinating stories of inventors, scientists and entrepreneurs, Ten Technologies to Save the Planet answers these and many other questions, and busts a raft of myths along the way. Assessing everything from electric cars and carbon capture through to tidal turbines in the violent waters of the Pentland Firth, Chris Goodall doesn’t pretend that the road ahead is easy, but he shows that we have the technology in development to address climate change. Engaging and authoritative, this is popular science writing at its most crucial. Review "Rewarding and essential, Ten Technologies combines rigorous research and an accessible tone." BBC Green About Author: CHRIS GOODALL is a writer and broadcaster on climate change issues, and editor of the website, Carbon Commentary. His previous book, How to Live a Low-Carbon Life, won the 2007 Clarion Award for non fiction and was described by New Scientist as ‘the definitive guide to reducing your carbon footprint’. He spends his free time turning off household appliances at the mains socket. ISBN - 9781846688683
