Marilyn BrownThe Drawdown Georgia carbon tracker and a survey on Georgians' attitudes toward climate solutions, both projects developed by the Drawdown Georgia research team headed by Marilyn Brown in the School of Public Policy, were the subjects of a news article published March 1, 2022 on WABE.org. The article details how the tracker localized data about carbon emissions in Georgia and how the survey shows a majority of Georgians believe the state should set a carbon reduction goal.
An excerpt:
Georgians can now see how much of the pollution that causes climate change is coming from their county. A new tool that shows emissions information by county comes as international scientists have released a report saying action on climate change is more urgent than ever.
