Taking action on the climate emergency

Looking for guidance on how to effectively address the climate emergency? Check out Project Drawdown’s list of climate solutions. The site lists the top 80 climate solutions as measured by gigatons of CO2 equivalent each solution would reduce. The solutions span many categories: buildings and cities, electricity generation, food, land use, materials, transport, and women and girls. They range from installing wind turbines to reducing food waste to educating girls.

And if you’re thinking about the transportation sector in our fair city, in particular, check out the Boston Globe Spotlight Team report on Boston traffic. The bottom line: state and city action could make a big difference in reducing car traffic in the greater Boston area.
