Project Drawdown

Thank you to Support and Feed for providing delicious plant-based meals to those in need! Maggie Baird and her team are an inspiration!

Want to eat more plant-based meals? Maggie Baird, Billie Eilish's mom, has some ideas Have you heard replacing meat with plant-based foods is better for the planet and can be better for your health too, but you don’t know where to start?

“Nothing else on a pound-for-pound basis, except maybe refrigerants, comes close to the polluting power of beef. That doesn’t mean everyone has to be vegan tomorrow, but the goal should be to trim back high-polluting parts of one’s diet" - @globalecoguy.bsky.social

A recipe for avoiding 15 million deaths a year and climate disaster is fixing food, scientists say Scientists are presenting new evidence that the worst effects of climate change can’t be avoided without a major transformation of food systems.

“People associate what they eat with identity and strict diets can scare people off, but even small changes help." - @enviroem.bsky.social

• Introduces global modelling to show how we can feed 10 billion people within environmental limits.

• Puts justice at the center — from fair wages to healthy food access.

• Identifies 8 solution areas to guide food systems transformation

• Reviews new evidence on food systems across health, climate, biodiversity and justice.

• Updates the Planetary Health Diet, showing how culturally adaptable, plant-rich diets can benefit people.

• Assesses food’s impact on all planetary boundaries, including emissions, land use, and freshwater.

The 2025 EAT-Lancet Commission Report Launches - EAT On 3 October 2025, EAT and The Lancet will launch the 2025 EAT-Lancet Commission, a major scientific update to one of the most widely cited food systems reports of the past decade.

The 2025 EAT-Lancet report has been published 6 years after the original report broke ground in synthesizing knowledge about our food systems. This new report provides a scientific update on what constitutes a healthy, sustainable, and just food system in today’s world.

"If the populations of high- and mid-income countries were to limit beef & lamb consumption to about one serving/wk, they could reduce emissions = to Russia’s annual emissions total."

All climate solutions are not created equal

Some climate solutions are ready to scale today. Some are promising but not yet proven. Others sound exciting in headlines but don’t hold up to the science﹣or carry too many risks ⚠️.

Care about climate change? The evidence shows these are the most impactful actions you can take Care about climate change? Here's what the evidence shows are the most effective things you can do.

A deep dive on high-impact #ClimateAction from #BBC! As I told Jocelyn Timperley, "Hopefully people going through the jointheshift.earth guide will have a bit of an aha moment, realising, 'wait a minute, I have more power than I thought, and there's more that I can do'."

Good point! Much more work to be done.

Drawdown® Explorer We know what we need to do: stop climate change as quickly as possible. Now, with the Drawdown Explorer, we know how to do it.

Was honored to serve on the advisory committee for @projectdrawdown.bsky.social’s new Drawdown Explorer — it has a simple and accessible platform design while comprehensive and rigorous on the backend. Great decision-support tool. drawdown.org/explorer

How the world’s taste for soya is eating Brazil’s Amazon Cultivation of the crop has made a few wealthy but at a huge cost to untouched forest as it spreads across vast areas of former wilderness

Soybeans are overwhelming used for feed. 80% of protein produced on Brazil's croplands is used to feed animals iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1....
The recent tariff issue is a prime example of how the world's taste for meat (not soy) is shaping distant landscapes. www.theguardian.com/global-devel...

The Spread of Soy in South America Grasslands, savannas, and dry forests have become popular places to grow soy.

Cropland area nearly doubled in South America between 2000 and 2019 - the largest relative increase in the world. Soybean production replaced rainforests, grasslands & savannas. earthobservatory.nasa.gov/images/14962... As China refuses U.S. soybeans, this puts more pressure on natural ecosystems.

💡 The Drawdown Explorer is what the climate movement has been missing: an all-encompassing platform using the best available data to provide decision-makers with actionable intelligence on the most effective climate solutions. Tune in next week to explore!

The Drawdown Explorer, featuring detailed analysis and actionable insights on nearly 150 solutions, is now live!

➡️ If you missed @globalecoguy.bsky.social presenting at @nestclimatecampus.bsky.social during #climateweekNYC, be sure to tune into this webinar with Jon Foley

"The power sector will continue to invest in renewable energy sources," Foley predicted, because "they're cheaper, easier to deploy, easier to permit, they have lower capital costs and just make more sense, especially compared to things like nuclear."

When it comes to achieving net-zero, the ease of permitting and lower cost mean transition is very much in play:

"I think that there's been a recalibration of tone and expectations, but not an abandonment of principle. Companies are still looking to drive down costs." - @globalecoguy.bsky.social

The Explorer is live. It’s free. And it’s built to help anyone — from investors to practitioners to community leaders — focus on the solutions that matter most.
