What Drives Us

Our Mission, Vision & Goals

Our mission is to link surplus with needs.

We envision humanity harmonizing with Earth. 

Our goal is to encourage optimism and trust in nature’s abundant cycles.

Mother Nature is a catalyst and always in balance
Did you know?

LINKING surplus with needs diverts useful items and materials from the waste stream, plus creates jobs in logistics & repairs.

You shampoo because HAIR collects oil.  Help us gather clippings from salons and pet groomers. We felt fibers into mats that soak up oil spills.

COMPOSTING grazed rangelands boosts photosynthesis, pulling more carbon out of the air and returning it back into the soil.

Our Programs

We have 5 major program departments:

(1) Clean Wave is our global hair-mats-for-oil-spills project where we felt waste fibers into mats that soak up petrochemicals.

(2) Our Eco-Industrial Hub with model factory and exhibit hall is in the SoMa district of San Francisco. Visitors are also welcome at our nearby showcase

(3) Eco-Home, with urban edible garden. These places provide immersive tours and field trips.

(4) The Hum Sum – for Humanity Adding Solutions is our environmental social media platform, where everyone can share planet-friendly posts and research.

(5) YEEP! Our Youth Eco-Education Programs include our green career internships & apprenticeships

Swipe to see the inside of a storm drain! Surrounding storm drains, stuffed hair boom sausages or rolled hair mat booms both prevent oil from entering our waterways. Placing hair mats inside effectively collects oil and litter from entering sewer systems and bays! To learn more about our Hair Matters program, check out matteroftrust.org (matteroftrust.org)Remember you shampoo because hair collects oil! Donate your hair cuts today and talk to your stylist and pet groomers about us - thanks! ... See MoreSee Less
