Event Description
Event hosted by Vegans of the NC Triad.

The Climate Fix Project - Monthly Discussion Group
WHEN: THURSDAY APRIL 25, 2019 - 6:30PM to 8:00PM in the Fellowship Hall

Come discuss ingenious, elegant, simple (and not-so-simple) solutions to reduce carbon emissions and heal the planet! We have the solutions to stop global warming-- what are they and how can we get those solutions implemented?

The topic for April is FOOD. "You add to livestock all other food-related emissions – from farming to deforestation to food waste – what we eat turns out to be the number one cause of global warming. This section profiles techniques, behaviors, and practices that can transform a source into a sink: Instead of releasing carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases into the atmosphere, food production can capture carbon as a means to increase fertility, soil health, water availability, yield, and ultimately nutrition and food security.”

We'll be using the book: "Drawdown: The Most Comprehensive Plan Ever Proposed to Reverse Global Warming," edited by Paul Hawken. Each monthly discussion will focus on a “climate fix’ to drawdown the carbon in the atmosphere. See the schedule below. Bring your friends. The public is welcome. "Book sharing" is available. For more information, contact
We will meet the Fourth Thursday of the month, excluding June and July, from 6:30-8:00. This number of meetings per topic will be decided by the group.
