Description
We need to act five times faster to avoid dangerous climate change. As the consequences of inaction become increasingly clear, it's time to rethink our approach. Simon Sharpe, a leading expert in climate change policy and diplomacy, sets out a provocative and engaging vision for how we can adapt our strategies to stay safe. The traditional paths of science, economics, and diplomacy are often at odds, and it's time to challenge the status quo. Sharpe argues that a fundamental shift in our thinking is needed, one that prioritises urgent action and collaboration. This book is a call to action, offering a fresh perspective on the challenges we face and the opportunities for change. By reorganising our efforts in the fields of science, economics, and diplomacy, we can act faster and more effectively to address the climate crisis. Five Times Faster is a worthwhile read for anyone looking to understand the complexities of climate change and find a way forward.
