Environmental Action Reaching Throughout Humanity
Environmental Action Reaching Throughout Humanity (E.A.R.T.H.) promotes sustainable ideas for a healthier future by educating communities about how to protect and preserve their natural resources. E.A.R.T.H supports community sovereignty by teaching people how to build their own off-grid earthen villages and providing access to clean water for Indigenous communities. E.A.R.T.H. helps foster healthy youth through earth-based live-action-roleplay and theater performances, inspired to engage children and young adults with the natural world around them.
E.A.R.T.H. spreads its message through promotional events, educational workshops and community actions in New Mexico, Colorado and Arizona.
E.A.R.T.H. strives to bring awareness to ecological restoration, regenerative technologies and the need for Rights of Nature.
Active Programs
Food Sovereignty Network
We are working to build a truly resilient food-sovereign ecosystem in the Taos, New Mexico region, We transform grassroots advocacy into institutional funding while honoring local agricultural traditions. Food sovereignty requires communities to control their own food production and distribution networks.
The Taos Food Sovereignty Working Group identified 6 steps to localizing Taos’ Food System.
Mud the Mesa
Mud the Mesa project is a collaborative effort created by and for the Taos Mesa community to involve local builders and architects in helping educate people about the accessibility of low-income, sustainable, earthen building techniques and housing amidst the unprecedented housing crisis in Taos, New Mexico. As rent prices rise, largely due to out-of-state property owners and the short-term rental boom, it is not uncommon to see people, even those born and raised in Taos, having to work two or three jobs to pay their rent and provide for their families.
Our aim is to build a web of people from across the world and all walks of life who share the common cause of protecting our home. We believe that en masse there can be real change, but to create it, we must walk together.
We need your help…

Clean Water for The Huni Kuin
Currently, the Huni Kuin people and many other tribes in the Amazon are drinking and bathing in water that is not sanitary or safe and people are getting sick. Tribal leaders asked us to share our lifesaving technology with his tribe, as they share the wisdom of the rainforest with us.
In 2022 the E.A.R.T.H. organization and team brought state-of-the-art NASA filters and installed 3 wells in two of the Huni Kuin villages in Acre, Brazil. Our goal is to further this endeavor by returning back to Acre and searching out other villages in need of clean water.
