2) From the Project Drawdown homepage, scroll down to where you see "Drawdown Insights." Choose one of the three most recent ones to read: "Introducing Drawdown Food..." (April 19 News); "International Climate Aid..." (April 11 Perspective), or "What is the global solutions diary?" (April 10 Perspective). You can certainly read two or all three of them if you like; they're pretty brief.     https://drawdown.org/

3) Read the attached essay by Kathleen Dean Moore,"Get Mad--A short treatise in defense of outrage"
