  Our age will be defined by the climate emergency. Contrary to the doomist narrative that's taken hold about the climate emergency, the world has already begun deploying the solutions needed to deal with it. On a journey across five continents, Climate Capitalism tracks the unlikely heroes driving the fight against climate change. From the Chinese bureaucrat who did more to make electric cars a reality than Elon Musk, to the Danish students who helped to build the world's longest-operating wind turbine, or the American oil executive building the technology that can reverse climate damages, we meet the people working to scale technologies that are finally able to bend the emissions curve. 
   
   
   
  Through stories that bring people, policy and technology together, Akshat Rathi reveals how the green economy is not only possible, but profitable. This inspiring blend of business, science, and history provides the framework for ensuring that future generations can live in prosperity and that the wheels of progress don't falter.

  The Life and Death of Ryan White...

  In the 1980s, as HIV/AIDS ravaged queer communities and communities of color in the United States and beyond, a straight white teenager named Ryan White emerged as the face of the epidemic. Diagnosed with hemophilia at birth, Ryan contracted HIV through contaminated blood products. In 1985, he became a household name after he was barred from attending his Indiana middle school. As Ryan appeared on nightly news broadcasts and graced the covers of popular magazines, he was embraced by music icons and well-known athletes, achieving a curious kind of stardom. Analyzing his struggle and celebrity, Paul M. Renfro's powerful biography grapples with the contested meanings of Ryan's life, death, and afterlives. 
   
   
   
  As Renfro argues, Ryan's fight to attend school forced the American public to reckon with prevailing misconceptions about the AIDS epidemic. Yet his story also reinforced the hierarchies at the heart of the AIDS crisis. Because the "innocent" Ryan had contracted HIV "through no fault of his own," as many put it, his story was sometimes used to blame presumably "guilty" populations for spreading the virus. Reexamining Ryan's story through this lens, Renfro reveals how the consequences of this stigma continue to pervade policy and cultural understandings of HIV/AIDS today.

  Information Technology (IT) refers to the use of computers, software, and networks to manage, process, store, and communicate information. It encompasses a broad range of activities and applications, including hardware and software development, network design and management, data storage and analysis, and cybersecurity. 
    
  At the core of IT are several key components. Hardware consists of the physical components of computers and related devices, such as servers, desktops, laptops, smartphones, and networking equipment like routers and switches. Software refers to the programs and applications that run on this hardware, which can be categorized into system software, like operating systems, and application software, like word processors and database management systems. Networks are systems that connect computers and other devices to share resources and information, including local area networks (LANs), wide area networks (WANs), and the internet. Data management involves the processes and technologies used to collect, store, and analyze data, encompassing databases, data warehouses, and big data analytics. Cybersecurity is the practice of protecting IT systems and data from cyber threats through measures like firewalls, encryption, and intrusion detection systems. Additionally, IT services support the use and maintenance of IT systems through technical support, IT consulting, and managed services.
