How to Decarbonize explores opportunities for decarbonization introduced by recent federal legislation, which has prompted state-level climate planning. It is designed for students and professionals whose work brings them into contact with these opportunities, even if climate is not their primary profession, including city managers, bankers, and home builders who are interested in participating in planning for decarbonization. Chapters aim to support the successful uptake of these policies by providing high-level views of these new decarbonization policies using social theory. The book is divided into four sections, each introducing a social theory about the organization of societies and how they change, and then providing examples to demonstrate the intricacies of implementation.
