Summary

"Our Livable World unveils the exciting green technology poised to prevent the climate apocalypse and usher in a sustainable, livable world. The solutions are ambitious: solar cells capable of storing energy overnight, "smart highways" designed to charge moving vehicles, indoor vertical farms automated to maximize crop growth, bioluminescent vines to replace streetlights, jet fuel created from landfill trash--and next-gen carbon capture to remove the emissions we have released. Featuring interviews with innovators, real talk on revolutionary technology, and a clear picture of a cleaner planet in the future, Our Livable World proves that our ability to fight climate change is limited only by the scope of our imagination and the power of our will." -- Back cover
