About this listen

The climate crisis is no longer a distant threat—it’s a present reality. Decarbonising Earth is a powerful and accessible exploration of the environmental, social, and economic consequences of climate change, the urgent need for action, and the technologies that can help us build a more sustainable and resilient future.

This book goes beyond the headlines to deliver a deep, honest look at what’s happening to our planet—and why immediate action matters.

  • Environmental Impacts: Discover how warming temperatures are triggering ecosystem collapse, rising sea levels, and deadly extreme weather events. Learn about the looming danger of tipping points and feedback loops that could accelerate global warming beyond our control.
  • Socioeconomic Consequences: From disrupted agriculture and declining tourism to supply chain breakdowns and rising health care costs, climate change is already affecting global economies. Impoverished communities, Indigenous populations, and women are being hit hardest, while millions face displacement and rising conflict driven by water scarcity and food insecurity.
  • Technology, Trade-offs, and Solutions: Dive into the landscape of climate solutions—from renewable energy and smart grids to carbon capture and emerging technologies like fusion power. Understand the potential and the limitations of these technologies, and the environmental and socioeconomic trade-offs that come with each.
  • A Path Forward: Learn about circular economies, net-zero transitions, nature-based solutions, and policy tools like carbon pricing. Discover how decoupling economic growth from fossil fuels is not only possible—it’s already happening in parts of the world.

Whether you're a policymaker, business leader, or concerned citizen, Decarbonising Earth will give you the insight to navigate climate misinformation, challenge inaction, and become a more informed voice in one of the most important conversations of our time.
