Description

Ending Fossil Fuels: Why Net Zero is Not Enough by Holly Jean Buck The pursuit of net-zero carbon emissions has become a global imperative, but what happens when this goal is achieved? One possibility is that the fossil fuel industry will continue to operate, relying on a symbiotic system to clean the air. This approach focuses attention away from the root cause: the point of production itself. The fossil fuel industry must be brought to an end, and governments must take action. To achieve this, climate advocates need to build political power through coalitions and platform governance. By doing so, they can create the necessary conditions for nationalizing the fossil fuel industry and harnessing its resources to remove carbon from the atmosphere. This book presents a compelling argument for why ending the fossil fuel industry is the only credible path forward in addressing climate change.
