![]() ![]() Regenerative development is development, whether it’s on an urban, transportation, housing, marine agriculture, or health level. When it comes to global warming, Hawken says, we’ve been “focusing too much on the problem instead of the solution…. They range from big difference-makers such as refrigerant management, wind turbines, and food waste to those that are important but not as impactful, including methane digesters, green roofs, and microgrids. The solutions are ranked by the number of gigatons of CO2, or the equivalent, that they would avoid or sequester between the years 20. As Hawken puts it, “There are no wannabes.” The volume includes descriptions of 100 of those solutions, 80 of which are currently in practice. The book, which he edited, represents the work of Project Drawdown, the organization he founded with the mission of researching and promoting a path to drawdown, the point at which the concentration of greenhouse gases begins to decline. ![]()
