Modeling has shown that if the world stops burning fossil fuels, we can avoid the worst impacts of climate change. Transitioning our energy system from fossil fuels to non-carbon energy sources provides a host of benefits beyond addressing climate change.

Reductions in air pollution, improved social equity, increasing the number of good-paying jobs and boosting the economy are all possible. This report, co-authored by RASEI Fellows Jeff Logan and Chuck Kutscher, explores what this transition looks like, the benefits and opportunities of making this change, and mechanisms that can be used to accelerate this global transformation.

The executive summary, 15 pages long, provides a great introduction to the challenges, solutions, and opportunities to this complex and crucial problem.
