About The Book
Five Times Faster: Rethinking the Climate Crisis by Simon Sharpe is a compelling and thought-provoking book that urges us to act five times faster to address the climate crisis and avoid dangerous global warming. Drawing from his decade-long experience at the forefront of climate change policy and diplomacy, Sharpe offers an insider's perspective on the urgent need for faster action.

The book critiques the current state of climate science, diplomacy, and economics, arguing that these areas are not moving quickly enough to meet the challenge. Sharpe calls for a reevaluation of our strategies in these fields to enable us to act swiftly and effectively.

This updated edition includes a new chapter that explores the dynamics of international competition and cooperation in tackling climate change. Additionally, it responds to the most common question the book has raised: "How can I help?" It provides readers with tangible ways to contribute to the global effort to combat climate change.

Engaging and accessible, Five Times Faster is an essential read for anyone concerned about the climate crisis and eager to understand how we can accelerate our efforts to protect the planet.
