About Earth Foundries:
At Earth Foundries we’re all about ending California’s catastrophic wildfires. Now more than ever, public and private land managers are working hard to restore the health of California forests. Earth Foundries helps by incentivizing the removal of forest waste from the landscape.
The earth has multiple biological systems that naturally sequester carbon—soil, oceans, and forests. Working with these natural systems, Earth Foundries will help end California’s catastrophic wildfires and slow climate change. We take the naturally sequestered carbon in forest waste and limit its re-release into the atmosphere, making forest management a more profitable and more carbon negative activity.
