Project Drawdown is a global research organization that identifies, reviews, and analyzes the most viable solutions to climate change, and shares these findings with the world.

We partner with communities, policy-makers, universities, non-profits, businesses, investors, and philanthropists to deploy climate solutions as quickly, safely, and equitably as possible.
