How Bad Are Bananas? was a groundbreaking book when first published
in 2009, when most of us were hearing the phrase 'carbon footprint'
for the first time. Mike Berners-Lee set out to inform us what was
important (aviation, heating, swimming pools) and what made very
little difference (bananas, naturally packaged, are good!). This
new edition updates all the figures (from data centres to hosting a
World Cup) and introduces many areas that have become a regular
part of modern life - Twitter, the Cloud, Bitcoin, electric bikes
and cars, even space tourism. Berners-Lee runs a considered eye
over each area and gives us the figures to manage and reduce our
own carbon footprint, as well as to lobby our companies, businesses
and government. His findings, presented in clear and even
entertaining prose, are often surprising. And they are essential if
we are to address climate change.
