Launched just eight months ago, Drawdown Explorer has quickly established a reputation as the world’s leading climate solutions platform. It is what the climate movement has been missing: an all-encompassing platform using the best available data to provide decision-makers with actionable, localized intelligence on the most effective climate solutions.

But we have only been scratching the surface in terms of what this revolutionary new platform is capable of. Eager to learn from you, Project Drawdown has received deeply thoughtful and highly constructive user feedback from around the world since last year’s launch of the first generation of Drawdown Explorer. Guided by your insights, we have been busy adding new capabilities and tools in the months since as we build out the second generation of Drawdown Explorer, which will pack an even heavier punch in the effort to stop climate change in its tracks.

This session will showcase the many ways Drawdown Explorer is already guiding and driving aggressive, scalable science-backed climate action – and where it is headed in 2026 and beyond. Amanda Smith, Ph.D., will offer insight into the scientific methodology and the people behind Drawdown Explorer, including how solutions are assessed and evaluated within the platform. Drawdown Explorer’s developer, Chad Upham, will also share behind-the-scenes insights about the design process for an open-access online platform specifically built to provide detailed, up-to-date intelligence on climate solutions. The session will close with an audience Q&A and reflections from Jonathan Foley, Ph.D. on how this work shapes the future of climate action.
