Synopsis

'Lays out an absolutely essential part of initial climate action in the US and other countries. Climate policymakers need to read this book, now.' James Gustave Speth, former chair, US Council on Environmental Quality.
We have a decade or less to radically slow global warming before we risk hitting irreversible tipping points that will lock in catastrophic climate change. The good news is that we know how to slow global warming enough to avert disaster. Cut Super Climate Pollutants Now! explains how a 10-year sprint to cut short-lived “super climate pollutants” – primarily HFC refrigerants, black carbon (soot), and methane – can cut the rate of global warming in half, so we can stay in the race to net zero climate emissions by 2050.
