PRAISE FOR Climate Capital “This is the rare book that translates complex climate solutions into actionable practice. Chi doesn’t just challenge conventional thinking; he enables the work of creating the future.” — BOLA OLUSANYA, Vice President and Chief Investment Officer, The John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation “Tom Chi is singular in his ability to think across disciplines and scale solutions that match the complexity of our ecological predicament—from prototype to planetary scale. Climate Capital is a masterclass in systems thinking, deep pragmatism, and visionary investing.” —TRISTAN HARRIS, Co-Founder, Center for Humane Technology “Chi cuts through the noise to highlight what it takes to build and scale climate solutions. Climate Capital is an innovator’s roadmap for building a sustainable future that will define jobs, economies, and resilience in the decades ahead.” —JEFF JOHNSON, General Partner and Head of Energy and Resilience, B Capital “Tom Chi understands deeply that the conflicts of our world don’t have to be destructive. Just as my home, Taiwan, was formed by the friction of tectonic plates, this book demonstrates how to transform the friction into fuel for cooperation.” —AUDREY TANG, Taiwan’s Cyber Ambassador and 1st Digital Minister “As our #1 rated mentor at Unreasonable Group, Chi has enabled a community of hundreds of entrepreneurs around the world to scale innovations that provide the foundation for a regenerative economy. This book is a treasure of tools that move beyond why—to how.” —CHRISTIANA MUSK, Chairwoman, Unreasonable Group “Beautifully written with meaningful tech insights by a master!” —DAN GOLDIN, 9th NASA Administrator “Tom Chi’s book, Climate Capital, grabbed me not just as well-researched but imbued with an abundance of relevant personal experience, practical cognitive tools and their application to the future of our government, our jobs, and our biosphere. Herein lies not blind optimism but a potent roadmap for building wisdom to enable ‘composting of late-stage capitalism.’” — GEORGE CHURCH, Co-Founder of Colossal Biosciences, and Professor, Harvard Medical School, Harvard University and Massachusetts Institute of Technology NATIONAL BESTSELLERFramework to design a real, sustainable, and non-harmful approach to our global economy Seeing economics for the design discipline it truly is, Climate Capital: Investing in the Tools for a Regenerative Future, leverages the decades of experience of Tom Chi as a physicist and designer to offer a realistic, grounded perspective on the fact that our current economic systems simply don’t work with our world’s physical reality in the long-term. The comprehensive, holistic approach in this book cuts through the noise of so many conversations happening at the intersection of climate change, economics, sustainability, and our global future, providing insights on: Possibilities for our collective future using science and hard evidence, avoiding the extremes of unbridled optimism or complete doom and gloom The 4Cs—Critical Thinking, Creativity, Compassion, and Community—as a framework to design a sustainable, non-harmful approach to our global economy Using nature, the best-designed system out there, instead of economic pseudoscience, as a guide to move beyond fear for our future to a place of empowerment for individuals and communities alike Part toolkit, part history, and part demonstration, Climate Capital: Investing in the Tools for a Regenerative Future provides tangible strategies for venture capitalists, sophisticated individual investors, pragmatic policy wonks, and ardent environmental activists to create a sustainable economic future that no longer destroys the planet.
