Find Nature Near You
Connect to Nature







Our Main Aim: Build a Weather Station for Carbon Sequestration
Nature Contact aims to provide accessible integrated quantitative tools for communities and researchers seeking to track and optimize ecosystem services provided by local green spaces. We are designing an easy to deploy, weather-proof, off-grid integrated product for monitoring and uploading data on: carbon sequestration, biodiversity, flood control, and heat island mitigation for existing and newly developed green spaces. Through our team efforts, we aim to reduce inequalities by providing tiered services to companies, municipalities, and community organizations to insure that access, opportunity and information reaches underserved populations and improves quality of life in places that benefit the most.
