Please join us for this introduction workshop to discuss a new way of engaging with global climate change. You might feel confused about the best way to help, guilty that you aren’t doing more, or even wondering if it’s too late anyway. We’re excited to share with you an approach to the issue that will leave you with more optimism and areas to focus that make a difference.
The approach is described in the book “Drawdown: The Most Comprehensive Plan Ever Proposed to Reverse Global Warming” which shows the results of 5 years of rigorous scientific research on the 100 most substantive solutions for addressing global warming. The solutions were identified and studied by a group of 200 researchers and other experts from 22 countries led by author, environmentalist, and entrepreneur Paul Hawken. The results reveal astounding news: it is possible not just to slow global warming, but to actually reverse it!
This introductory workshop will include an high level overview of Project Drawdown, an opportunity to reflect on how we’ve been relating to global warming, a video clip of Paul Hawken introducing and explaining the Project Drawdown plan, and a group discussion on what we as a group or individuals may want to do to participate. The workshop will also describe the 5-session follow-on course that is currently being piloted around the country.
