'Argues persuasively . . .nothing less than eye-opening' Financial Times

Can we really restore the earth’s atmosphere within our lifetime?

Whether through sustainable technologies such as fossil-free steel production, hydrogen-powered ships and electric motorbikes, or natural solutions like rewilding peatlands, people all over the world are finding new ways to travel, feed themselves and drive industry while safeguarding a liveable planet for future generations.

Drawing on decades of research and a vast network of experts, Rob Jackson, Chair of the Global Carbon Project, introduces some of the brilliant innovators behind the boldest solutions to climate change – including an Eritrean agricultural scientist, a Swedish CEO and a Brazilian hydrologist.

Now we have more tools to combat climate change than ever before, Into the Clear Blue Sky traces a clear path to a better future for us all – one that will see us cutting emissions in inventive new ways that protect our health and livelihoods, while repairing the damage we have caused to the atmosphere. This visionary and transformative book is the call to action we need – right now.

MEDIA REVIEWS

He argues persuasively… [Jackson’s] work on methane, the greenhouse gas that’s more potent but more shortlived than carbon dioxide, is nothing less than eye-opening - Financial Times

A fascinating look into some of the cutting edge climate solutions—and for all its technical savvy, this book ends in the right place, with wonderful glimpses of activists like Rev. Lennox Yearwood and Rose Abramoff, who remind us that without movements, nothing can happen! - Bill McKibben

The most important book on atmospheric cleansing ever written . . . identifies the climate villain for this decade at least - methane - Tim Flannery, author of Atmosphere of Hope

Here is a man who, possessing the deepest knowledge about the most dire of consequences, chooses action over paralysis and hope over despair. This is of course, the natural condition of love. My own hope? That Into the Clear Blue Sky is read, and that Rob Jackson is heard - Rick Bass, author of For a Little While

This is an exceptional inquiry into the fight against global warming - Publishers Weekly Starred Review

A useful handbook for reducing one’s carbon footprint and encouraging neighbours and communities to do the same. - Kirkus Starred Review
