Here comes the sun : a last chance for the climate and a fresh chance for civilization / Bill McKibben.
In Here Comes the Sun, climate activist Bill McKibben explores the rapid rise of solar and wind energy as a powerful, accessible alternative to fossil fuels. Highlighting global progress and grassroots efforts, he shows how renewable energy offers not just a path out of the climate crisis but a chance to build a fairer, more democratic world. Despite resistance from the fossil fuel industry, McKibben argues that this solar revolution is our best hope for a sustainable future.
