We talk about Project Drawdown and what it considers to be the best solution to the climate crisis. We also explore the criticisms of the solutions that super rich people like Bill Gates are proposing to deal with climate change and why they won&#8217;t solve the climate crisis. Finally, we explore what we can all do now to contribute to a more sustainable future, rather than waiting for our politicians to take action.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><span><br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2>VIDEO: Climate Scientist Dr. Foley on the best approach to combat Climate Change<\/h2>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Climate Scientist Dr. Foley on the best approach to combat Climate Change\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/qdM0p9lhDLY?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>To watch more of our videos on this topic or with other experts such as Edward Snowden, Noam Chomsky, Abby Martin, Yanis Varoufakis, Glenn Greenwald, Jeremy Scahill, Jill Stein, Daniel Ellsberg, etc, please visit and subscribe to our YouTube channel by\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/user\/acTVismMunich?sub_confirmation=1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">clicking here.<\/a><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2>Donate today to support independent &amp; non-profit media!<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.actvism.org\/en\/donate\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Click here<\/a>\u00a0or on the picture below:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.actvism.org\/en\/donate\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-4434 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.actvism.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/28_acTVism_Webseite_Donation-Image_EN_700x233px_Future.jpg\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.actvism.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/28_acTVism_Webseite_Donation-Image_EN_700x233px_Future.jpg 700w, https:\/\/www.actvism.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/28_acTVism_Webseite_Donation-Image_EN_700x233px_Future-300x100.jpg 300w\" width=\"700\" height=\"233\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2>ABOUT JONATHAN FOLEY<\/h2>\n<p><strong>Jonathan Foley<\/strong> is a climate and environmental scientist, sustainability expert, author, and public speaker.
