Paul Hawken thinks we can solve the world's toughest climate challenges. He takes the stage at the Drawdown Learn Conference, held in collaboration with the Omega Center for Sustainable Living, to tell us how. Hawken talks about his entrepreneurial path from an unfocused Northern California youth to health food promoter to Project Drawdown, a global NGO aimed literally at fixing the world.

This episode features longtime public radio journalist Karen Michel's intimate conversation with Hawken woven together with audio recorded in Hawken's Omega workshop session.

Join Michel for each episode of Dropping In as she sits down with the great thinkers, creative talent, and social visionaries who teach at Omega Institute, to explore the many ways to awaken the best in the human spirit.
