Frischmann, Chad Jonathan, Mamta Mehra, Ryan Allard, Kevin Bayuk, João Pedro Gouveia, and Miranda R. Gorman (2020): Drawdown’s ‘System of Solutions’ Helps to Achieve the SDGs. Encyclopedia of the UN Sustainable Development Goals. Living reference work entry. https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-319-71067-9_100-1.

‌”This entry describes the linkages between “Drawdown solutions” and the targets and goals set out by the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). It is proposed that the implementation of these solutions can substantially help to achieve the SDGs by 2030, with even greater gains when implementing actions in parallel as a “system of solutions”[nbsp]enabled by broad-based, effective partnerships at local, regional, and international scales.
