Media Reviews
When economist Chris Goodall was writing this pleasingly accessible book, G7 countries had just begun to set net zero emission targets, and his idea of meeting those goals by boosting renewable electricity enough to create hydrogen-powered economies seemed highly ambitious. Today, it's going mainstream as countries around the world bet on just that strategy. -- Pitta Clark * Financial Times – Environment Books of the Year *
This is exactly the kind of mapping out that we need to make the zero carbon world happen. Chris Goodall's plan is well argued and delightfully readable. -- Mike Berners-Lee, author * There is no Planet B, How Bad are Bananas? *
Chris Goodall is the kind of person we need to lead us to safety faced with climate change. I learned so much reading this book. It's crisp, superbly researched - and remarkably calm. We can do this. -- Tim Harford, author * 50 Things That Made The Modern Economy, presenter, More or Less *
Praise for Ten Technologies: 'Brilliantly concise and clear-eyed.' * New Scientist *
Praise for How to Live a Low-Carbon Life: 'Valuable ammunition for those who want to do something about global warming ... Goodall is a pioneer.' * Guardian *
The Switch 'A highly readable book ... for anyone interested in the future of energy.' * Financial Times *
