Name: Drawdown
Rating: 4 (4 reviews)
Author: Paul Hawken

In "Drawdown," scientist and environmentalist Paul Hawken gathers an international coalition of researchers and practitioners to outline 100 real-world strategies that can reduce atmospheric greenhouse gases. The measures range from clean‑energy technologies and carbon‑sequestering land practices to education initiatives in developing countries. Hawken argues that these solutions are already in use, are economically feasible, and can be deployed worldwide over the next three decades to reach the milestone of drawdown, when global emissions peak and begin to fall. By emphasizing societal benefits such as improved health, security, and prosperity, the book frames climate action as an opportunity to build a just and livable planet.

📘 New Climate War

by Michael E. Mann

Recycle. Fly less. Eat less meat. These are some of the tactics that we've been told can slow climate change. But most of these recommendations are a result of a multi-pronged marketing campaign that has succeeded in placing the responsibility for fixing climate change squarely on the shoulders of individuals. Fossil fuel companies have followed the example of other industries deflecting blame (think "guns don't kill people, people kill people") or greenwashing (think of the beverage industry's "Crying Indian" commercials of the 1980s).
