Jacobson on how today's technology of wind, solar and water can save our climate and clean our air.Mark Z. Jacobson’s career has focused on better understanding air pollution and global warming problems and developing large-scale clean, renewable energy solutions to them. Toward that end, he has developed and applied three-dimensional atmosphere-biosphere-ocean computer models and solvers to simulate air pollution, weather, climate, and renewable energy. He has also developed roadmaps to transition countries, states, cities, and towns to 100% clean, renewable energy for all purposes and computer models to examine grid stability in the presence of high penetrations of renewable energy. To date, he has published six textbooks and about 180 peer-reviewed journal articles. He has testified four times for the U.S. Congress. In 2005, he received the American Meteorological Society Henry G. Houghton Award for \"significant contributions to modeling aerosol chemistry and to understanding the role of soot and other carbon particles on climate.\" In 2013, he received an American Geophysical Union Ascent Award for \"his dominating role in the development of models to identify the role of black carbon in climate change\" and the Global Green Policy Design Award for the \"design of analysis and policy framework to envision a future powered by renewable energy.\" In 2016, he received a Cozzarelli Prize from the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences for \"outstanding scientific excellence and originality\" in his paper on a solution to the U.S. grid reliability problem with 100% penetration of wind, water, and solar power for all purposes. In 2018, he received the Judi Friedman Lifetime Achievement Award \"for a distinguished career dedicated to finding solutions to large-scale air pollution and climate problems.\" In 2019 and 2022, he was selected as \"one of the world's 100 most influential people in...","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/bCpvkYgrorWYCv4ujOodZ7o-xqCKvQH-YHlEI5E7zpw/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS83NDM2/MGJjOTYyNjBkYzJi/ZDVhMTUwZDgwMWE3/ZDk3OS5wbmc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
