Top 2021 Reviews: How to Avoid a Climate Disaster: The Solutions We Have and the Breakthroughs We Need, by Bill Gates, read by Wil Wheaton

Audiobook Reviews in Five Minutes

One of my top audiobook listens for 2021. Gates identifies the Five Grand Challenges of climate change as manufacturing (31%), electricity (27%), agriculture (19%), transportation (16%), and buildings (7%). Since there’s no single solution for any of these sectors, Gates proposes we speed up the cycle of innovation and attract a mix of private and public investment that is more risk tolerant than we’re used to seeing in order to reach net zero emissions by 2050.
