Which Drawdown coming attractions are fast approaching?

The first ever research on shifting to an economy that consumes greenhouse gases was released in April 2017.

As well as listing 80 current, commercially scalable action opportunities, Project Drawdown’s first report included 20 high-potential “Coming Attractions”.

Some of those future possibilities are quickly moving toward reality. Just in the past few months I’ve spotted:

Living Building plans announced for “The World’s Most Sustainable Shopping Centre“
Developing options for Building with Wood ““Super wood” sports the strength of steel“
Ocean Farming moves afoot with “Seasteading: Come for the Algae Bacon, Stay for the Freedom“

Check out the 17 other exciting “Coming Attractions” on Project Drawdown’s Solutions page: www.drawdown.org/solutions

PRINCIPLES

Society and community and business opportunity

Trying to make a business “responsible” AFTER you’ve made it profitable is expensive (and hard to maintain). Instead “begin with the end in mind” and design for regeneration.

EXAMPLES

Bottom up community action on renewable energy

I’ve been watching the good folk of Yackandandah developing energy independence for years. It started when I first saw cute “golden yaks” on fences in this quiet country village when visiting family there.
