For over twenty years, Bill Nye has inspired legions of fans with an empowering message: the combination of scientific curiosity and human ingenuity can transform obstacles into opportunities and unlock a future of endless possibilities. Now, in Unstoppable: Harnessing Science to Change the World, Bill applies his message of technological optimism to the serious challenge facing our species: climate change. With a scientist's rigorous understanding of how things are and an engineer's vision of how things could be, Bill completely re-frames the issue. He sees today's environmental crisis not as the end of progress but as an Opportunity for a tremendous new beginning - a moment for our society rethink the way we live and to create a cleaner, healthier, smarter world. We need not remain shackled to the inefficient technologies of the Industrial Revolution; we need not accept pollution and environmental ruin as the inevitable costs of a vibrant economy; above all, we need not leave our children a planet that is depleted and overheated. The urgent task here is not saving the Earth. lt's saving the Earth for us - for humanity. We can do that, but the moment to begin is now.
When you are done reading, you will be enlightened and inspired. You will see a new path forward. You will be ready to join Bill and change the world.
The science is clear and the warnings are dire: Man-made climate change is happening and will adversely affect human life on this planet.
Both the effects of climate change and the political obfuscation stalling meaningful education and action to create a better future can seem insurmountable.
But in "Unstoppable: Harnessing Science to Change the World," author Bill Nye — yes, former host of the television series "Bill Nye the Science Guy" — sees relentless human ingenuity as reason to hope.
