The environmental crisis will not be resolved by battery technology alone. "Thinking Small and Large" reveals the ingenuity of microbes at key stages of their 4-billion-year history of life and highlights their growing role in solving our most serious problem: climate change, which floods and burns our world in increasingly threatening ways each year.
Cutting-edge research on some of the oldest bacteria leads to a parallel carbon economy that uses mechanical bacteria for fuels, food, and materials. This would allow for large-scale replanting, with the small land footprint of bacterial technologies resolving current conflicts between land use for agriculture and the production of fuels and materials.
In this exciting and enlightening book, Peter Forbes sheds light on this critical technology and offers an enticing glimpse of what is possible. To solve big problems, you need to think small.
