National Bestseller Don't lose your Constitutional rights. Learn them. Do you really want the crooked baby-kissers and fake news to tell you what your rights are? Wouldn't you rather discover them for yourself? The Founders fought tirelessly to guarantee these God-given rights to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. But let's face it—the Bill of Rights is hard to understand. Its text is flowery and puzzling. It's full of legal and political jargon. And without the right historical background, it's impossible to grasp the full meaning, importance, and scope of each of the amendments (and especially the second amendment). This book is the shortcut. With it, you'll quickly reach a deep understanding of the Bill of Rights thanks to the precise definitions of key words, crucial historical contexts, and enlightening insights from the Founders and their peers. So, if you're . . . Struggling to understand the United States Bill of Rights . . . Wondering how it should apply to modern society . . . And maybe even doubting whether it should still be held as inviolable today, 230 years after its writing . . . . . . and if you want to discover what the two-faced corruptocrats and their media lackeys absolutely hate the most about our country and Constitution . . . . . . you want to read this book today. Scroll up, click the "buy" button now, and learn things most Americans will never know about life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BEST SELLER • In this urgent, authoritative book, Bill Gates sets out a wide-ranging, practical—and accessible—plan for how the world can get to zero greenhouse gas emissions in time to avoid a climate catastrophe. Bill Gates has spent a decade investigating the causes and effects of climate change. With the help of experts in the fields of physics, chemistry, biology, engineering, political science, and finance, he has focused on what must be done in order to stop the planet's slide to certain environmental disaster. In this book, he not only explains why we need to work toward net-zero emissions of greenhouse gases, but also details what we need to do to achieve this profoundly important goal. He gives us a clear-eyed description of the challenges we face. Drawing on his understanding of innovation and what it takes to get new ideas into the market, he describes the areas in which technology is already helping to reduce emissions, where and how the current technology can be made to function more effectively, where breakthrough technologies are needed, and who is working on these essential innovations. Finally, he lays out a concrete, practical plan for achieving the goal of zero emissions—suggesting not only policies that governments should adopt, but what we as individuals can do to keep our government, our employers, and ourselves accountable in this crucial enterprise. As Bill Gates makes clear, achieving zero emissions will not be simple or easy to do, but if we follow the plan he sets out here, it is a goal firmly within our reach.
