James Cameron has spent four decades operating where politics, business and the environment collide. He helped shape modern international climate law, advised governments across the world, founded one of the first climate investment businesses to manage over $1.7 billion, and still believes the biggest opportunities are ahead of us.

Why optimism is a competitive advantage. And why the people who build the future are usually the ones naïve enough to believe impossible things can be done.
