Econopolis Economic Encounter

Is it possible to reverse global warming?

The climate and environmental challenge is not only a challenge, it is also a huge opportunity for countries and companies.

The world’s leading resource for climate solutions is called “Project Drawdown”, and “drawdown” is the point where we will not emit, but subtract greenhouse gases from the atmosphere.

Project Drawdown is a world-class research organization that reviews, analyses, and identifies the most viable global climate solutions, and shares these findings with the world. The founder and leader of Project Drawdown is Paul Hawken.
