We must go to negative-emissions territory to keep global warming under the 1.5°C target, and policymakers and potential investors need help to discern where to focus their attention and resources. This book offers a clear-eyed view of how far along the decarbonization path six key sectors of the economy are and which areas and technologies are promising in terms of investments.

The goal of achieving net zero emissions is insufficient to address the pressing issue of climate change. We have hesitated for far too long, and the time to act is now. To keep global warming within the symbolic threshold of 1.5°C, we must embark on a journey to negative emissions territory, well before 2050. The national commitments made thus far fall short of what is required, and the investments envisioned are inadequate. Despite the best intentions, policymakers and potential investors struggle to determine where to direct their attention and resources in the vast array of initiatives and technologies. This is where this book comes in, offering a clear-eyed assessment of the progress made in decarbonizing six critical sectors of the economy: energy, utilities, transportation, industry, buildings, and agriculture. Furthermore, a special chapter dedicated to Africa sheds light on a continent that is simultaneously grappling with the severe consequences of climate change, is likely to experience an increase in greenhouse gas emissions, and holds immense potential for solving the energy transition and economic growth challenges faced by the West and the world. As a comprehensive guide, this book serves as a valuable resource for investors, professionals, and policymakers seeking to navigate the complex landscape of options and make informed decisions in the fight against global warming.
