Review for Open Earth Foundation, Marina Del Rey, CA, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

Open Earth Foundation has a very complex mission that works at the intersection of technology and climate change. I work in the energy industry and see how Open Earth Foundation programs are working to develop efficiencies and solutions for climate action. The OpenClimate program pilot in British Columbia is super interesting and shows great potential for scaling to other communities.

Keep up the great work and keep innovating!!

The work they do is valuable to our community, so establishing a dedicated funding source or sources would benefit this small organization greatly.
