On November 25 at 2.15-3.15 PM, you are invited to a virtual book club via Zoom, to discuss the book How to avoid a climate disaster by Bill Gates.
Send an e-mail to anna.alexandersson@lnu.se to get the link for Zoom.
We are reading this book in the light of the latest climate report from ICCP and the latest climate summit in Glasgow. The book has garnered both praise and criticism, and below we have listed some resources if you want to read more.
The book club is hosted by the Knowledge Platform Entrepreneurship and Social Change, and the Entrepreneurship, sustainability and social change master program at School of Business and Economics, Linnaeus University.
