TOM CHI’S NEW BOOK

Climate Capital

Investing in the Tools for a Regenerative Future 

Climate Capital: Investing in the Tools for a Regenerative Future reframes economics as a design discipline, offering a realistic, grounded perspective from physicist and designer Tom Chi. It shows why today’s economic systems can’t align with our planet’s physical realities and introduces a comprehensive framework for change. Key insights include:

  • Science-based possibilities for our collective future—avoiding extremes of blind optimism or doom.

  • The 4Cs: critical thinking, compassion, climate, and community as a framework for sustainable economics.

  • Learning from nature—the best-designed system—rather than economic pseudoscience, to shift from fear to empowerment.

Part toolkit, part history, and part demonstration, this book offers tangible strategies for investors, policymakers, and activists to build a regenerative economy that sustains, rather than harms, our world.

    Christiana Musk, Chairwoman, Unreasonable Group

  • "Tom Chi is singular in his ability to think across disciplines and scale solutions that match the complexity of our ecological predicament - from prototype to planetary scale. Climate Capital is a masterclass in systems thinking, deep pragmatism, and visionary investing."

    Tristan Harris, Co-Founder, Center for Humane Technology

  • “This is the rare book that translates complex climate solutions into actionable practice. Chi doesn’t just challenge conventional thinking; he enables the work of creating the future.”

    Bola Olusanya, VP & Chief Investment Officer, The MacArthur Foundation

  • "Chi cuts through the noise to highlight what it takes to build and scale climate solutions. Climate Capital is an innovator’s roadmap for building a sustainable future that will define jobs, economies, and resilience in the decades ahead."

    Jeff Johnson, General Partner & Head of Energy & Resilience, B Capital

  • “Beautifully written with meaningful tech insights by a master!”

    Dan Goldin, 9th NASA Administrator

  • “Tom Chi understands deeply that the conflicts of our world don’t have to be destructive. Just as my home, Taiwan, was formed by the friction of tectonic plates, this book demonstrates how to transform the friction into fuel for cooperation.”

    Audrey Tang, Taiwan's Cyber Ambassador and 1st Digital Minister

  • "Chi brings a unique understanding grounded in his experience and success as both a scientist and a businessman. The result is a refreshing perspective that encompasses both the monumental size of the problem and a realistic approach to addressing it."

    Bruce A. Brown, Head of Strategic Climate Initiatives, New Mexico State Investment Council

  • "The same quiet, powerful principles that bring life back to our soil hold the key to regenerating our world, a truth Tom Chi brilliantly lays out for our entire economy. He provides a common-sense blueprint for the most important work of our lives; creating a world of true abundance for the generations to come."

    Gabe Brown, Regenerative Rancher, Co-Founder of Regenified and Author of "Dirt to Soil"

  • "Tom’s fabulous new book gives us a critical and catalytic playbook for how humanity can become a "net positive" force, leaping beyond sustainability toward a regenerative relationship with nature that delivers profit, risk reduction, restoration and resilience if we invest with a full stakeholder, full systems, full utilization of disruptively better tools recently available to us approach."

    Jane Woodward, Managing Partner, WovenEarth Ventures & Adjunct Professor, Civil and Environmental Engineering, Stanford University

  • "As a venture capitalist for over 35 years I have worked with some of the most brilliant minds in the world. Tom has the unique skillset of taking the most complex problems and distilling them down into a simple and digestible format for the layman. Putting Tom’s brain trust behind the largest problem in the world facing humanity – climate change – is a blessing and win for humanity."

    Eric Chin, General Partner, Crosslink Capital, Co-Founder, Alpha

  • "Tom is one the few people who truly understands technology, capital, and Nature deeply. Anyone tired of the traditional silos and seeking a more natural and integrated approach to building solutions will love this work."

    Marcius Extavour, Partner, Ode, Founder, Extempo Media
