Spesh Ep: Drawdown Design Project with C. Andrew Hall

Art meets science! Problems meet solutions! Climate change meets … hope? In this atypical episode, things get casual as hell as Alie sits down to talk about the Drawdown Design Project: an illustration non-profit started by filmmaker, Emmy-nominated television editor and longtime friend Andy Hall. When he’s not having to edit Alie on Innovation Nation, Andy is the founder and creative director of the Drawdown Design Project, which commissioned some of the world’s most sought-after artists to illustrate climate solutions outlined by Drawdown.org. What resulted was the just-released limited-edition 200 print run of ENGAGE, EMPOWER, CULTIVATE and ELECTRIFY. Andy walks me through the passion, the production and the process of raising money for rainforests while making something gorgeous and uplifting. Also: I used to serve snacks on film sets.  Get one of the 200 limited-edition Drawdown Design Project prints: https://drawdowndesignproject.org/donate   Follow www.Instagram.com/DrawdownDesignProject and maybe win a poster!   More info on climate solutions at www.Drawdown.org   A donation went to: https://www.rainforestcoalition.org/    More about the illustrators: https://drawdowndesignproject.org/illustrators   ENGAGE by Brian Steely https://www.steelyworks.com/   CULTIVATE by Tula Lotay https://www.instagram.com/tulalotay/    EMPOWER by Khary Randolph https://www.instagram.com/kharyrandolph/    ELECTRIFY by Malleus  https://www.instagram.com/malleusdelic/   More links at alieward.com/ologies/drawdowndesignproject  Sponsors of Ologies: alieward.com/ologies-sponsors Transcripts & bleeped episodes at: alieward.com/ologies-extras Become a patron of Ologies for as little as a buck a month: www.Patreon.com/ologies OlogiesMerch.com has hats, shirts, pins, totes and now… MASKS.
