Inhalt:
In this timely book, Ed Atkins asks: are we getting decarbonisation right? And how could it be made better for people and communities? In doing so, this book proposes a different type of energy transition. One that prioritises and takes opportunities to do better - to provide better jobs, community ownership and improve people's homes and lives.
