Climate change will have the biggest impact on people

The author's interest in climate change is a natural outgrowth of the efforts by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation to reduce poverty and disease. Climate change, according to him, will have the biggest impact on the people who have done the least to cause it. According to Allen Lane, the book will set out a vision for how the world can work to build the tools it needs to get to net-zero greenhouse gas emissions.

"To prevent the worst effects of climate change, we have to get to net-zero emissions of greenhouse gases. This problem is urgent, and the debate is complex, but I believe we can come together to invent new carbon-zero technologies, deploy the ones we have, and ultimately avoid a climate catastrophe," Gates said.

"How to Avoid a Climate Disaster: The Solutions We Have and the Breakthroughs We Need" will hit stands on June 24, 2020.
