Backyard Solutions for Climate Action

Dwelling On Carbon was formed in response to the growing climate crisis with the intention of providing more holistic solutions that can be done in people’s backyards.

OUR MISSION

The charitable purpose of Dwelling On Carbon is twofold: First, to develop innovative strategies for carbon sequestration and water conservation in urban landscapes to mitigate the climate crisis; second, to educate people about cooling our planet by creating graphic representations and telling stories that provide glimpses of a healthier world for all who live here.

We collaborate with many community groups, including other nonprofits, spiritual groups, and schools. Our cross-pollination will continue to widen as we grow.
