Climate Change: How We Get To Carbon Zero, with Bianca Nogrady

Climate Change: how we can get to carbon zero by Bianca Nogrady, published 25 March 2021

Man-made global warming is advancing inexorably. Are there ways to halt it?

In this invaluable, one-stop guide Bianca Nogrady analyses the science of climate change and offers a concise overview of the ways in which our carbon emissions might be reduced. She examines the challenges posed by food and energy production and the cutting-edge technologies that could mitigate their polluting effects. She looks at initiatives to create green industry and transport. She explains the economics of emissions trading schemes and the practicalities of geoengineering plans to trap greenhouse gases. And she addresses the fundamental question: is it possible to safeguard our future before it’s too late?

Bianca Nogrady is an Australian freelance science journalist, author and broadcaster. In more than a decade of freelance reporting, her work has appeared in outlets including The Atlantic, Wired UK, The Guardian, Undark, MIT Technology Review, Nature, Scientific American, the ABC, and BBC.
Her latest book Climate Change: How We Get To Carbon Zero, is published by Wired UK and Penguin Random House.

She is also author of The End: The Human Experience Of Death, editor of the 2019 and 2015 Best Australian Science Writing anthologies, and co-author of The Sixth Wave: How To Succeed In A Resource-Limited World.
