Achieving carbon neutrality is within reach, as explored in Possible. Chris Goodall outlines the challenges and technologies needed for a sustainable future.

In Possible, Chris Goodall, a leading expert in climate technologies, presents a compelling case for achieving carbon neutrality. He emphasizes that transitioning away from fossil fuels is not only feasible but also essential for our health and the environment. By exploring various technological advancements, Goodall provides a roadmap for how society can effectively combat climate change while simultaneously improving our everyday lives.

The book delves into sixteen significant challenges that must be addressed to realize a just transition to a carbon-neutral future. Goodall discusses innovative solutions across multiple sectors, such as the production of steel and cement, carbon sequestration in soils, and the utilization of green hydrogen. He shares inspiring case studies from entrepreneurs around the world, showcasing the remarkable potential of modern technology to facilitate this transition.

Additionally, Possible highlights groundbreaking projects like Sweden's H2 Green Steel, California's Fortera cement alternative, and innovative recycling methods in Hong Kong. Goodall's insights and success stories illustrate that while the journey to net zero is complex, it is achievable with determination and collaboration. This book serves as both a guide and a source of inspiration for anyone interested in climate action and sustainable development.

We know how to make greener electricity and therefore cleaner cars. But it's harder to cut emissions from aircraft, shipping, cement-making and other sectors that are tougher to electrify. Harder, but still possible, writes clean energy expert Goodall, in a book that shows much progress is already being made -- 'Best summer books of 2024' * Financial Times *
