A net-zero world is within reach. But it will be a far different place—one where companies have recreated their businesses, people have adapted their lifestyles, and governments have taken measures to protect natural resources.
It’s 2050, and we’re exploring how the world radically reduced carbon emissions and saved itself from climate change catastrophe. What have our cities done to accommodate massive population growth?
