GOAL• Identify the most promising solutions for achieving carbon neutrality in Georgia.
Project Overview
www.GeorgiaDrawdown.org
APPROACH• Start with the 100 Project Drawdown solutions & add new solutions identified by experts and the
community of stakeholders• Identify the most promising solutions for Georgia in 3 stages, with increasing rigor and systems
analysis, focused on smaller subsets of solutions• For each solution:
• Assess carbon reduction potential and costs in Georgia• Look “beyond carbon” at economic development, health, environment, and equity
GUIDING PRINCIPLES• Quantitative objective analysis• Tap Georgia’s expertise and build Georgia’s network• Be robust enough to provide a foundation for future efforts
