In this fireside chat, John J. Berger Ph.D, environmental science and policy specialist, journalist, and prize-winning author, joins Wei-Tai Kwok, co-founder of Climate Reality Project Bay Area Chapter and Lafayette (CA) city council member, to discuss "Visionary Leaders and Green Cities," a key chapter of Mr. Berger's new book, Solving the Climate Crisis: Frontline Reports from the Race to Save Earth.
Six years in the making, Solving the Climate Crisis features interviews with governors, mayors, ranchers, scientists, engineers, business leaders, energy experts, and entrepreneurs, as well as carbon farmers, solar and wind innovators, forest protectors, non-profit leaders, and activists. It makes the case that replacing the fossil-fuel system with a newly invigorated, modernized, clean-energy economy will produce tens of millions of new jobs and save trillions of dollars — protecting the climate while offering the greatest economic opportunity of our time.
