"How to Avoid a Climate Disaster" by Bill Gates. It's a pragmatic nerd's comprehensive view of ways to tackle climate change, and you know the author is deeply involved in some of the initiatives.

I also found "Unwinding Anxiety: New Science Shows How to Break the Cycles of Worry and Fear to Heal Your Mind" by Judson Brewer eye opening (once you see through its self-help tone). The author claims (and backs it up by research he has conducted) that anxiety and worrying are addictive, and similar regimes for smoke cessation, weight loss, and drug rehab can be used to mitigate them.
