Project Drawdown Information

Project Drawdown is the world’s leading guide to science-based climate solutions. As a U.S.-based nonprofit, we are an independent, internationally-trusted organization driving bold, science-based approaches to stop climate change. Our work is built on three pillars: SCIENCE – Advancing Science-Based Climate Solutions and Strategies. First, we conduct cutting-edge research to identify the best possible climate solutions and design the most effective strategies to bring them to scale. Then, we share our findings with the world through effective science communication, marketing campaigns, and media partnerships. STAKEHOLDERS – Engaging Key Stakeholders and Empowering Bold Climate Leadership. Next, we use our science to inform, inspire, and empower key stakeholders and emerging climate leaders – including policymakers, community leaders, philanthropists, investors, business leaders, and others – to take bold action and bring the most effective solutions to the world. STORIES – Telling Human Stories of Solutions in Action. Finally, we use the power of storytelling to help shift the narrative on climate change – from problem to solution and from “doom and gloom” to “opportunity and possibility.” Along the way, we showcase new climate heroes putting solutions into action. In short, we believe that rigorous science is needed to guide climate action. And we believe that this science must be shared in actionable, compelling ways – through stakeholder engagement and powerful storytelling. Our job is to make this happen. A 501(c)(3) nonprofit, non-partisan organization, Project Drawdown is funded by individual and institutional donations.
