Getting the Word Out

To the people who can put the knowledge to work in the real world 

... we're making movies! (and other stuff)

How it works

Working with our colleagues at Stanford University's Building Decarbonization Learning Accelerator, we will develop, edit and upload video and teaching Powerpoint decks, inviting contributors from noteworthy colleagues around the world. In tandem with that, we will launch a social media marketing campaign to make sure we get the word out.

Your support makes possible some of our first projects
