Resumen del Editor
How Business Can Fight Climate Change captures the perspectives, insights, and ideas of 35 of the world's greatest thought and action leaders, addressing the increasingly alarming global challenges of a world where carbon emissions are out of control. It provides an easy-to-understand guide for every business leader and company on how they can play a more proactive role in addressing this serious threat to the global system—the very system they depend on and thrive in.
Through no-holds-barred conversations, influential figures, experts, and activists candidly share their aspirations and inspire the private sector to take up the fight over these next few critical years and decades. They provide suggestions and share best practices, demonstrating how forward-thinking, globally minded entrepreneurs, executives, and innovators are leading the way on this front and working in parallel to and in collaboration with governments, philanthropic institutions, and other stakeholders.
How Business Can Fight Climate Change underscores the role, power, and responsibility of the private sector to lend a hand and contribute to global welfare—not just from an altruistic perspective but from a self-preservation and sustainability perspective as well. It argues that if the private sector doesn't come to the table, the world will fail to overcome the crisis it is currently facing; public policy and government funding alone cannot replace the private sector playing its part. A failure to act in the corporate world will put our industries and economies, and ultimately our livelihoods and lives, at risk.
Amid the bad news, How Business Can Fight Climate Change offers a glimpse of hope: There is, in fact, light at the end of the tunnel. It highlights countless examples of companies and individuals doing their share to slow down and even reverse the damage of climate change. It also showcases many exciting innovations that usher in a new generation of conscientious and impactful practices that make winning this fight no longer a pipe dream but a real possibility. From new solutions that offset carbon emissions to viable funding resources for clean energy, there are many reasons to be optimistic.
Still, the disastrous impact of climate change is perhaps the greatest challenge of our lifetime, significantly greater than COVID, both in terms of complexity and what's at stake. Ultimately, it is a problem that requires no less than an all-hands-on-deck, collaborative approach that includes companies, governments, institutions, and individuals.
How Business Can Fight Climate Change is a timely call to action and a practical blueprint for how the world can get to zero greenhouse gas emissions in time to avoid a climate catastrophe. It sends an overdue and urgent message to every businessperson and company that inhabits and plans to continue inhabiting planet Earth.

Historia
In this sharp and controversial international best seller, an award-winning economist debunks the pervasive myth that the government is sluggish and inept, and at odds with a dynamic private sector. She reveals in detailed case studies that the opposite is true: The state is, and has been, our boldest and most valuable innovator. Denying this history is leading us down the wrong path. A select few get credit for what is an intensely collective effort, and the US government has started disinvesting from innovation.

Historia
As venture capitalist Alexandre Lazarow shows in this insightful and instructive book, this Silicon Valley "gospel" is due for a refresh - and it comes from what he calls the "frontier", the growing constellation of startup ecosystems, outside of the Valley and other major economic centers, that now stretches across the globe. The frontier is a truly different world where startups often must cope with political or economic instability and lack of infrastructure, and where there might be little or no access to angel investors, venture capitalists, or experienced employee pools.

Imagine what Atari might have achieved if Steve Jobs had stayed there to develop the first massmarket personal computer. Or what Steve Case might have done for PepsiCo if he hadn't left for a gaming start-up that eventually became AOL. What if Salomon Brothers had kept Michael Bloomberg, or Bear Stearns had exploited the inventive ideas of Stephen Ross? Scores of top-tier entrepreneurs worked for established corporations before they struck out on their own and became self-made billionaires.

Historia
In the past few years, a number of well-known firms have failed; think of Blockbuster, Kodak, or RadioShack. When we hear about their demise, it often seems inevitable - a natural part of "creative destruction." But closer examination reveals a disturbing truth: Companies large and small are shuttering more quickly than ever. What does it take to buck this trend? The simple answer is: ambidexterity. Firms must remain competitive in their core markets, while also winning in new domains.

Soccer moms drive Priuses. Sport utility vehicles are going hybrid. Families are using hemp shopping bags. More and more companies are developing "green" buildings. What's more, the business consultants say going green is easy and profitable. In reality, though, many green-leaning businesses, families, and governments are still fiddling with the small stuff while the planet burns. Why?
