What if the solution to the climate crisis is . . . capitalism? The solutions to overcome the global climate crisis already exist, and contrary to the belief that we're all doomed, we will continue to prosper. We have now entered the third major transition since the industrial revolutions: from wood to coal to oil, the world now turns towards clean energy. This is a $35 trillion industry. In Climate Capitalism, award-winning journalist Akshat Rathi unveils ten key breakthroughs in green economy, with extraordinary case studies of how people have turned world-changing ideas into reality. From east to west, from solar power in India to hydrogen strategies in Denmark and Germany, carbon capture in Norway and the United States, electric car manufacturing in China and the most advanced climate law in the UK - this is the story of our fight to survive. A new economic age has begun, are you ready for it?

What if the solution to the climate crisis is . . . capitalism? Our age will be defined by the climate emergency. But contrary to the doomist narrative that's taken hold, the world has already begun deploying the solutions needed to deal with it. On a journey across five continents, Climate Capitalism tracks the unlikely heroes driving the fight against climate change. From the Chinese bureaucrat who did more to make electric cars a reality than Elon Musk, to the Danish students who helped to build the world's longest-operating wind turbine, or the American oil executive building the technology that can reverse climate damages, we meet the people working to scale technologies that are finally able to bend the emissions curve. Through stories that bring people, policy and technology together, Akshat Rathi reveals how the green economy is not only possible, but profitable. This inspiring blend of business, science, and history provides the framework for ensuring that future generations can live in prosperity and that the wheels of progress don't falter.

The climate crisis can feel overwhelming but, as this book shows, for every problem there are young voices raising awareness, creating solutions and demanding that things change.
