PROJECT DRAWDOWN'S MISSION IS TO DRIVE MEANINGFUL CLIMATE ACTION BY ADVANCING SCIENCE-BASED SOLUTIONS AND STRATEGIES.

COMMUNICATIONS: OUR RIGOROUS, CUTTING-EDGE RESEARCH IDENTIFIES THE BEST POSSIBLE CLIMATE SOLUTIONS AND DESIGNS THE MOST EFFECTIVE STRATEGIES TO BRING THEM TO SCALE. WE THEN SHARE OUR FINDINGS WITH THE WORLD THROUGH EFFECTIVE SCIENCE COMMUNICATION, MARKETING CAMPAIGNS, AND MEDIA PARTNERSHIPS. FOR EXAMPLE, WE HAD OVER 1.3 MILLION USERS FROM 230 COUNTRIES AND TERRITORIES ACCESS CLIMATE SOLUTIONS INFORMATION ON OUR WEBSITE IN 2024, AND THERE HAVE BEEN MORE THAN 1.2 MILLION VIEWS OF DR. JONATHAN FOLEY'S TWO TED TALKS SINCE THEY WERE RELEASED. THERE HAVE BEEN 12,500 DOWNLOADS OF PROJECT DRAWDOWN'S PUBLICATIONS IN THE LAST YEAR. FROM THE TED STAGE, INTERNATIONAL CLIMATE MEETINGS AND CLIMATE WEEK TO TOP-TIER MEDIA OUTLETS AND BOARDROOMS ACROSS THE WORLD, WE AMPLIFY THE IMPORTANCE OF SCIENCE-BASED CLIMATE ACTION.

SCIENCE: THE DRAWDOWN SCIENCE TEAM WORKS TO IDENTIFY THE MOST EFFECTIVE SOLUTIONS AND STRATEGIES, AND SERVES AS TRUSTED THOUGHT LEADERS IN THE GLOBAL CLIMATE SOLUTIONS SPACE. WE CONDUCT CUTTING-EDGE RESEARCH TO IDENTIFY THE BEST POSSIBLE CLIMATE SOLUTIONS AND DESIGN THE MOST EFFECTIVE STRATEGIES TO BRING THEM TO SCALE. DESPITE THE IMPORTANCE OF FOOD SYSTEMS IN THE GLOBAL CLIMATE CHALLENGE, EFFECTIVE SOLUTIONS IN THIS SPACE RECEIVE ONLY 3% OF CLIMATE FUNDING. OUR DRAWDOWN FOOD INITIATIVE IS WORKING TO CHANGE THIS BY CREATING AND SHARING SCIENCE-BASED PLANS TO ADDRESS CLIMATE CHANGE IN THE FOOD, AGRICULTURE, AND LAND-USE SECTOR. DRAWDOWN FOOD'S WORK EMPOWERS POLICYMAKERS, COMMUNITY LEADERS, BUSINESSES, INVESTORS, PHILANTHROPISTS, AND OTHERS TO DEPLOY THE MOST IMPACTFUL CLIMATE ACTIONS ACROSS THE GLOBAL FOOD SYSTEM. DRAWDOWN EXPLORER WILL BE WHAT THE CLIMATE MOVEMENT HAS BEEN MISSING: AN ALL-ENCOMPASSING PLATFORM USING THE BEST AVAILABLE DATA TO PROVIDE DECISION-MAKERS WITH ACTIONABLE, LOCALIZED INTELLIGENCE ON THE MOST EFFECTIVE CLIMATE SOLUTIONS. BUILT UPON TRILLIONS OF DATA POINTS AND THOUSANDS OF HOURS OF ANALYSIS BY TOP SCIENTISTS, DRAWDOWN EXPLORER WILL BE THE DEFINITIVE GUIDE TO EFFECTIVE CLIMATE ACTION, HIGHLIGHTING EMERGENCY BRAKE SOLUTIONS THAT CAN RAPIDLY REDUCE EMISSIONS, GEOGRAPHIC HOT SPOTS TO MAXIMIZE IMPACT, AND BENEFIT CLUSTERS THAT SIMULTANEOUSLY PROVIDE ADDITIONAL BENEFITS TO PEOPLE - IMPROVED HEALTH, ECONOMIC VITALITY, SECURITY, MORE - AND NATURE THROUGHOUT THE WORLD. WE HAVE ALREADY HAD A REACH OF OVER 10 MILLION ONLINE VIEWS OF THE DRAWDOWN EXPLORER TEASER VIDEO TO DATE.

DRAWDOWN LABS: UNLOCKING THE FULL POTENTIAL OF OUR CLIMATE SOLUTIONS REQUIRES SHARING SCIENCE-BACKED SOLUTIONS IN ACTIONABLE AND COMPELLING WAYS. 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. WE HELP RAPIDLY ACCELERATE GLOBAL CLIMATE INVESTMENT BY SHOWING THE WORLD WHAT IS POSSIBLE, AND MOST EFFECTIVE IN ADDRESSING CLIMATE CHANGE. THE DRAWDOWN CAPITAL COALITION WORKS WITH IMPACT INVESTORS, PHILANTHROPISTS, AND THEIR ADVISORS TO GUIDE PRIVATE CAPITAL INTO MORE STRATEGIC, SCIENCE-BASED CLIMATE SOLUTIONS. AND WITH THE SUPPORT OF OUR PARTNERS, WE IDENTIFY OTHER ACTIONS - SUCH AS ADVOCATING FOR NEW POLICIES, PURSUING CRITICAL RESEARCH, OR ADVANCING PUBLIC COMMUNICATION - THAT CAN ALSO HELP SCALE CLIMATE SOLUTIONS. TO DATE, THIS WORK HAS HELPED GUIDE BILLIONS OF DOLLARS TOWARD MORE EFFECTIVE CLIMATE SOLUTIONS. THROUGH PROJECT DRAWDOWN'S JOB FUNCTION ACTION GUIDES, WE ARE EMPOWERING EMPLOYEES TO TAKE CLIMATE ACTION WHILE AT WORK AND HELP THEIR COMPANIES IMPLEMENT CLIMATE SOLUTIONS. WE HOST INTERACTIVE TRAINING PROGRAMS THAT HELP CLIMATE-PASSIONATE EMPLOYEES ENGAGE THEIR EMPLOYERS IN SCALING CLIMATE ACTION. FINALLY, RECOGNIZING THE CRITICAL IMPORTANCE OF INDIVIDUAL CLIMATE ACTIONS, WE ARE COLLABORATING TO LAUNCH SHIFT, A GAME-CHANGING NEW TOOL FOR CLIMATE-CONSCIOUS INDIVIDUALS SEEKING GUIDANCE FOR TAKING THE MOST EFFECTIVE, SCIENCE-BASED PERSONAL CLIMATE ACTION POSSIBLE - AT HOME, AT WORK, AND IN THEIR COMMUNITIES.
