This study group is led by Boxborough resident Marjorie Kemp of the Carbon C.R.E.W. Project! The Carbon CREW (Carbon Reduction for Earth Renewal) Project started in Long Island and is inspired by the documentary 2040. In the film and this accompanying handbook, Austrailia film maker Damon Gameau looks at inspirational efforts around the world to address climate change and concludes that we have the resources to turn back our heating climate, if only we would implement the needed changes. The Carbon CREW Project takes themes from the book–Transportation, Buildings/Energy, Consumption, Diet, and Drawdown–and looks at how individual households can reduce their carbon footprints.

- Reduce your carbon footprint by 50% in 5 years.
