SWORDS, Ireland--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Climate Solutions 101 is a shift to action for a brighter climate future. The multimedia education experience on climate change is now live, thanks to collaboration between Project Drawdown and founding sponsors—global climate innovator Trane Technologies (NYSE: TT); financial software innovation company Intuit (NYSE: INTU); and entrepreneur and philanthropist Chris Kohlhardt.
The immersive six-part video experience details how solutions on hand today can make meaningful and equitable global change, and get us to the point of ‘drawdown,’ the point in the future when levels of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere stop climbing and start to steadily decline.
“Global challenges require hearts, minds, and hands to dig-in on meaningful change,” said Dr. Elizabeth Bagley, Director of Drawdown Learn at Project Drawdown. “Climate Solutions 101 was designed to fill a need for highly-produced, science-based, educational content that moves people from knowledge to action. Taken together, the Drawdown climate solutions offer the world a powerful vision for a climate-safe future. Thanks to the generous support of our mission-aligned partners, Project Drawdown is committed to sharing—at no cost—the science and inspiration behind the safest, fastest, and most equitable climate solutions available today.”
Climate Solutions 101 presents the latest need-to-know science, along with fascinating insights from global leaders in climate policy, research, investment, and beyond. The video series is open-access and free to anyone who wants to learn how human action today can reverse the climate crisis for generations to come.
