Summary:
"As Greenland melts, Australia burns, and greenhouse gas emissions continue to rise, we think we know who the villains are: oil companies, consumerism, weak political leaders. But what if the real blocks to progress are the ideas and institutions that are supposed to be helping us? Five Times Faster is an inside story from
Simon
Sharpe
, who has spent ten years at the forefront of
climate
change
policy and diplomacy. In our fight to avoid dangerous
climate
change
, science is pulling its punches, diplomacy is picking the wrong battles, and
economics
has been fighting for the other side. This provocative and engaging book sets out how we should rethink our strategies and reorganise our efforts in the fields of science, diplomacy, and
economics
, so that we can act fast enough to stay safe"--From publisher.
