Last week, we launched the world's ultimate guide to climate solutions -- the Drawdown Explorer.
People thought we were nuts to give it (and all the underlying data) away for free. But we insisted.

A powerhouse review by Cory Doctorow of solar's amazing potential (and Bill's new book), but also a warning about how it could be enshittified by the rent-seekers. A GREAT read!! ☀️
If you told me I could have a great review of my new book from the NYT or from Cory Doctorow, I'd take the latter in a heartbeat

I'm excited about this trend! Wouldn't it be cool if it could spread as quickly and successfully in the US as it has in Germany and Pakistan?

According to a Navy spokesperson I spoke with, the 11th hour decision to keep data flowing from the three weather satellites was due to critical feedback it received. A testament that our voices and concerns do very much matter. My full afternoon update ⬇️
