Drawdown Solutions
In this education series, we are going to break down some of the topics in the popular book “Drawdown” which outlines real-world strategies to help mitigate climate change. Each post will contain relevant take-home tips for you to implement these global-warming reversing strategies, with helpful resources to get you started. The list below includes the Drawdown strategies in order of highest impact. Use the links below to read as new topics are added.
