In her inspiring keynote, Michelle Wyman makes the point that scientists have always solved the world's problems and changed history, including Gladys West who made GPS possible. #NCSEDrawdown2021#ResearchtoAction
#NCSEDrawdown2021 Day 4 is off to a brilliant start with doughnut...economics from @KateRaworth. Tactical ideas backed by science for how to meet the needs of ALL people within the bounds of the planet. @NCSEGlobal @ProjectDrawdown
Day 3 of #NCSEDrawdown2021 is underway--focused on Naming the Future We Want! Today started w/ a keynote on the role of technology & a plenary panel on global health in altered ecosystems. Amazing graphic illustrations from @ConverSketch#ResearchtoAction#ScienceServes
Water Challenges panelists say global cooperation on integrated solutions can address water security, energy security and food security at once. Start with an ethic of meeting the needs of all living beings. #researchtoaction#NCSEDrawdown2021@SonomaDistrict5@jcganter
“We need to begin by saying what we don’t know.” We need to be willing to acknowledge the hierarchical and elitist nature of science, be cognizant of the fact that we are learning, and go into it with humility, listening to each other and to Earth. - Valerie Luzadis @vluzadis
In an outstanding session on the relationship between indigenous knowledge & western science, panelists discussed the need to expand narrow scientific approaches and practices to embrace indigenous science traditions that have been operating for millennia. 1/4 #NCSEDrawdown2021
“The way we teach science is slanted in one direction” and research needs to include indigenous concepts like hospitality, mutual respect and the idea that we are all in this together. - Dr. Darren Ranco 3/4
"In this moment we must all work to build the gap between science, policy and action on a global level." @andersen_inger Executive Director @UNEP@UN

Stabilizing our climate requires that we expand the scope of “drawdown” to include short-lived climate pollutants & other factors driving up the heat imbalance. Join SCS Senior VP Linda Brown (1/5 1-2:30 EST) at #NCSEDrawdown2021. Register: https://t.co/G1S057NZEN @researchtoact
