This book is notable why?? edit

The book's author Bill Gates is so historically significant that any of the author's written works may be considered notable. This does not simply mean that the book's author is notable by Wikipedia's standards; rather, the book's author is of exceptional significance and the author's life and body of written work would be a common subject of academic study.— Preceding unsigned comment added by Jezarnold (talkcontribs)

Reduce is not Zero edit

I removed the following, which was uncited and that I don't recognize having read the book, and don't understand:

Gates introduces the concept of Reduce is not Zero. In summary, the world focuses on reducing CO2 emissions; as opposed to establishing a plan that gets us to zero emissions. The advantage of a plan is it handles the entire batch of needed equipment at one time, which enables one to justify spending money on additional factory automation. The disadvantage of a plan is it entails trillions of dollars of equipment, and few people are comfortable with projects of this size.
