Project Drawdown
The Pachamama Alliance offers two programs to focus on solutions and action (rather than problems and despair) and empower people in individual and collective engagement.
The grounding of these programs is the work of Project Drawdown and the book Drawdown: The Most Comprehensive Plan Ever Proposed to Reverse Global Warming

The Rochester Area Pachamama Alliance Drawdown Ambassadors’ mission is to generate hope for the world, grounded both in awareness that global environmental catastrophe is now at hand and in knowing that real, effective climate solutions exist, with many now underway worldwide. With Project Drawdown as a guide, we inspire, motivate, and empower individuals and groups to learn, collaborate, and take action. Understanding the interconnectedness of all living beings as the foundation of these efforts, we hold to the Pachamama Alliance’s vision of a human presence on earth that is environmentally responsible, socially just, and spiritually fulfilling. Our purpose is to support a collaborative, diverse, vibrant and empowered Greater Rochester community.
