Project Drawdown
Project Drawdown
Project Drawdown is one of my go-to resources for easily grasping the issues behind climate change and the main sources of greenhouse gas emissions causing it.
Project Drawdown is a nonprofit organisation creating resources and promoting existing solutions to reach “drawdown”—the future point in time when levels of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere stop climbing and start to steadily decline.
