There are still many technologies to be developed, but we can make innovation happen.\u003cbr\u003e If we can act quickly, we can avoid the catastrophe that climate change will bring.\u003cbr\u003e This is what I felt while studying climate change and response technologies.\u003cbr\u003e This book explains what we should do and how we can do it.\u003cbr\u003e --- p.9, from the \"Preface\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Over the past few years, I've learned a lot from some of the world's leading climate and energy experts.\u003cbr\u003e Discussions with them were always new. \u003cbr\u003eThis is because our understanding of climate change has deepened as new data on it emerge and computer modeling techniques used to predict various scenarios have improved.\u003cbr\u003e With the help of these techniques, I was able to distinguish between all the possible outcomes of climate change and those that are likely to actually occur.\u003cbr\u003e As a result, we became convinced that the only way to avoid disaster was to achieve zero.\u003cbr\u003e --- p.33, 「1.\u003cbr\u003e From \"Why Zero?\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e As we make various attempts to reduce carbon dioxide emissions, we will need more and more electricity.\u003cbr\u003e This method of using electricity instead of fossil fuels is called electrification.\u003cbr\u003e For example, using clean electricity instead of coal to make steel. \u003cbr\u003eOne company I'm following with interest has come up with a new method called molten oxide electrolysis.\u003cbr\u003e Instead of melting iron in a furnace with coke, this method involves applying an electric current to a mixture of liquid iron oxide and other ingredients.\u003cbr\u003e During this process, the iron oxide is broken down, leaving only the pure iron needed to make steel and the byproduct oxygen.\u003cbr\u003e Carbon dioxide is not produced.\u003cbr\u003e The technology is promising, but like other ideas for making clean steel, its practical application in industry has yet to be proven.\u003cbr\u003e --- p157~158., 「5.\u003cbr\u003e Among “manufacturing”\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e In short, we can lower the green premium by making zero-carbon products cheaper (through technological innovation) or carbon-intensive products more expensive (through policy innovation).\u003cbr\u003e Of course, you can pursue both of these simultaneously. \u003cbr\u003eOur goal is not to punish people for their greenhouse gas emissions, but to incentivize them to create competitive zero-carbon alternatives.\u003cbr\u003e By gradually increasing the prices of carbon-intensive products, governments can encourage producers and consumers to make better decisions and encourage innovation that lowers the green premium.\u003cbr\u003e If e-fuels weren't forced to sell at such a low price due to the artificially low price of gasoline, more people would want to make e-fuels.\u003cbr\u003e --- p.265~266, 「10.\u003cbr\u003e How important are government policies?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e What we can and must do over the next decade is to introduce drastic decarbonization policies by 2050.\u003cbr\u003e “Reducing greenhouse gas emissions by 2030” and “achieving net zero by 2050” sound similar, but are very different. \u003cbr\u003e‘Reducing greenhouse gas emissions by 2030’ is not an intermediate goal to ‘achieving zero by 2050.’\u003cbr\u003e There is a difference that is not intuitive, but is very crucial.\u003cbr\u003e If we reduce greenhouse gases by 2030 in the wrong way, we may not be able to achieve zero by 2050.\u003cbr\u003e Why is that? Because what needs to be done to reduce greenhouse gases by 2030 is fundamentally different from what needs to be done to achieve net-zero emissions by 2050.\u003cbr\u003e These two goals have different measures of success.\u003cbr\u003e We have to choose between these two.\u003cbr\u003e --- p.280, 「11.\u003cbr\u003e From \"The Road to Zero\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e When faced with a massive problem like climate change, individuals can easily feel helpless.\u003cbr\u003e But there's no need to do that.\u003cbr\u003e Because even individuals, not just politicians or philanthropists, can make a difference. \u003cbr\u003eIndividuals can drive change as citizens, consumers, and employers or employees.\u003cbr\u003e\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e --- p.310, 「12.\u003cbr\u003e From “What Each of Us Can Do”\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003ch5\u003e \u003cb\u003ePublisher's Review\u003c\/b\u003e\n\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e \u003cb\u003eBill Gates' first book in 20 years of public service!\u003cbr\u003e A comprehensive, realistic, and actionable plan for zero greenhouse gas emissions\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Bill Gates is back.\u003cbr\u003e From a tech innovator who founded Microsoft to a respected philanthropist and investor in environmental research, the topic he has been obsessed with for the past decade is climate change.\u003cbr\u003e As co-chair of the Bill \u0026amp; Melinda Gates Foundation, the issue of energy poverty, which he encountered while working to eradicate poverty and disease, became a catalyst. \u003cbr\u003e“The world has a responsibility to provide more energy so that the poorest people can become self-sufficient, but it must provide that energy in a way that no longer emits greenhouse gases.” (p. 13) He went all-in on climate change research, consulting with numerous experts around the world.\u003cbr\u003e And this book contains measures to respond to the climate crisis.\u003cbr\u003e The goal is clear.\u003cbr\u003e Achieving net zero greenhouse gas emissions.\u003cbr\u003e First, developed countries must develop innovative climate solutions to achieve decarbonization by 2050, and then distribute these innovations cheaply around the world to reach a zero-carbon state, where no more greenhouse gases are emitted into the atmosphere.\u003cbr\u003e There is something to note.\u003cbr\u003e We should avoid goals such as 'We will reduce emissions to a certain level by 2030 and achieve zero by 2050.'\u003cbr\u003e This is because ‘reducing emissions by 2030’ is not an intermediate goal to ‘achieving zero by 2050.’ \u003cbr\u003eFor example, building a gas-fired power plant with carbon capture equipment instead of a coal-fired power plant would reduce carbon dioxide emissions, but the plant would still be operating in 2050.\u003cbr\u003e In other words, even if we can achieve 'reduction by 2030', achieving 'zero by 2050' will become more distant.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eWhat can I do now?

Ultimately, the main source of innovation supply is businesses, while the main source of innovation demand is the government. \u003cbr\u003eThe government should provide appropriate incentives to encourage companies to create more innovation.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e In this book, I've highlighted the innovations and inventions needed to achieve zero carbon, such as new electricity storage technologies and new steelmaking methods.\u003cbr\u003e But innovation isn't just about creating new devices.\u003cbr\u003e Innovation is also a new policy that allows new innovations to be brought to market as quickly as possible.\u003cbr\u003e _10.\u003cbr\u003e How Important Are Government Policies? (Page 259)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e While it's common to see the environment and growth as opposing forces, the author argues that they can actually spark innovations that can save the economy from COVID-19 and avert climate catastrophe.\u003cbr\u003e Investing in clean energy research and development can spur economic recovery and reduce carbon emissions.\u003cbr\u003e Because in the short term it creates jobs and in the long term it becomes a nutrient that achieves zero. \u003cbr\u003eIf the government introduces policies to lower the green premium, it will provide a springboard for clean energy companies to grow.\u003cbr\u003e It is entirely possible to kill two birds with one stone: economic growth and zero-carbon innovation.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eThe only book that provides a useful framework for thinking about climate issues.\u003cbr\u003e A must-read for transitioning from a carbon-powered civilization to a clean energy civilization.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e 2021 marks the launch of a new climate regime that imposes greenhouse gas reduction obligations on all countries, regardless of whether they are developed or developing.\u003cbr\u003e Last October, our government declared 'carbon neutrality by 2050' and expressed its intention to join the new climate regime.\u003cbr\u003e There are also reports that the climate crisis is the root cause of the COVID-19 pandemic, which has gripped the world for over a year.\u003cbr\u003e The number of people who are changing the term 'climate change' to 'climate disaster' or 'climate emergency' is increasing. \u003cbr\u003eAwareness of the climate crisis is gradually increasing.\u003cbr\u003e Is it too late?
