COMPOSTING
Why we care: Composting prevents methane (a potent greenhouse gas) from being released to the atmosphere by diverting food waste from going to the landfill and instead turning this food waste into nutrient rich soil. This healthy soil can then replenish eroded farmlands and regenerate the land.
Non-Profit Partner: Soil Cycle
Soil Cycle is a organization on a mission to reduce food waste and carbon emissions through offering environmentally sustainable composting services and education. They are bicycle powered; picking up compost on bikes and promoting sustainability through direct communication with the community as they travel through neighborhoods.
REGENERATIVE FARMING
Why we care: Regenerative farming is the most sustainable type of farming because it replenishes viable nutrients back into the soil so that it remains healthy for generations to come.
Non-Profit Partner: White Buffalo Land Trust
White Buffalo Land Trust is a local non-profit working to create healthy food and farming systems. They practice, promote, and develop systems of regenerative agriculture to heal soils, recharge water sources, balance our climate, increase biodiversity, address food security, and revitalize economics.
OCEAN HEALTH
Why we care: As a coastal California based team, we enjoy the benefits of the ocean everyday. Today more than ever, we need to help protect the health of the ocean and the wildlife that lives in it.
Non-Profit Partner: The Channel Islands Marine & Wildlife Institute (CIMWI)
