Produktbeschreibung

In Closing the Gap: Sustainable Infrastructure to Save the World, you'll learn about one of the foremost challenges of our time: the global infrastructure gap. You'll learn about persisting shortfalls in access to energy, water, and transportation services and the ways this continues to drive poverty and inequality all across the world. Readers will discover how investments in sustainable infrastructure can reverse these trends while building resilience to global challenges of climate change, pandemics, and conflict. Moreover, you'll discover the massive opportunity facing our world to invest in sustainable development and bring about a more prosperous future for us all.

Inside, readers find stories about the devastating effects of climate change in India, population growth and urbanization in sub-Saharan Africa, and resource-driven conflicts in the Middle East. You'll hear from some of the world's foremost experts on the potential to move massive amounts of private capital into infrastructure projects in the Global South. You'll learn about successful efforts to deliver renewable energy in the unlikeliest of places and the profound effects of infrastructure on sustainable growth and development.

This is a book that not only organizes the complex world of sustainability but encourages readers to take action to make the world a better place.
