About Drawdown
There is no silver bullet for climate change because slowing planetary warming will require a variety of strategies. Drawdown, a new book edited by the green entrepreneur Paul Hawken, analyzes 100 solutions, ranks them by the amount of greenhouse gases they could cut, and reaches some surprising conclusions.

What was uncovered was a path forward using the means we already have on hand. Nothing new needs to be invented. The solutions are in place and in action.
