PROJECTS
TURF SCRUBBER
Injection well wastewater discharge is one of many stressors degrading Maui’s nearshore reefs. Native freshwater algae species hold a key to solving wastewater problems on the island and can be grown with Turf Scrubber technology.
WATER SOLUTION-ARIES
Uniting the youth of Earth through expansive linkages of geography, science and culture with a focus on freshwater appreciation and conservation in regions surrounding the Great Lakes of Africa and North America.
BELIZE ECO VILLAGE
A space created with the community for the community to cultivate independence, pride and a culture of tourism that places unprecedented focus and importance on uplifting and engaging with native populations while preserving and protecting natural resources.
WASTE TO ENERGY
Without the availability of an antidote to the disease of waste and landfills, humans have accepted living with the problem. Despite the bold visions of climate solutions, there are very few proposed answers to this worldwide issue. The naturally arising question is: What would we replace landfills with exactly? Enter down-draft gasification — the process of converting waste with organic material into a completely clean byproduct. This technology has the potential to eliminate landfills — and create a need to “mine” them for energy — while having negative greenhouse emission through carbon sequestration in soil reclamation efforts. The technology has great potential in attaining climate goals if carried out on a greater scale.
ZERO WASTE MAUI FAIR
Environmental impacts caused by the annual fair are mitigated through a multi-step, comprehensive plan to transform it into a zero waste event that can then be scaled to and applied across the entire state.
