Ecosystem Restoration Communities

@erc-earth.bsky.social

We are local communities restoring Earth for a sustainable future. Join the Mighty Movement!

Too much climate funding stops in offices. Wildfires, floods and failing harvests continue to increase. Meanwhile, thousands of communities already know how to restore ecosystems and build resilience. What they need isn't more paperwork. They need resources to act. Do you agree?

The cascade: Selective grazing → wildflower diversity ↑. Dung introduction → beetle colonization → bat/bird activity ↑. Trampling → microhabitat creation. Fur/dung → seed dispersal. They've even self-optimized fencing routes. This is applied restoration ecology. 🔄

Want to learn more? Join our FREE webinar with Matthew Trumm. Two time slots: Oct 30 (10am PST/6pm CET) or Nov 3 (6pm PST). Get your questions answered, meet the instructor, and see the full curriculum. Training starts Feb 2026. Register: www.ecosystemrestorationcommunities.org/learn/wildfi...

This isn't theory. It's proven strategies from people who've lived through megafires and rebuilt. From understanding fire ecosystems to mid-fire action to long-term land management. For landowners, practitioners, and anyone ready to take meaningful climate action.

Meet Matthew Trumm. In 2018, the Camp Fire destroyed Paradise, CA. He responded by founding the world's first mobile disaster response camp. Then another fire hit his family's land. For 7 years, he's been learning what actually works for wildfire prevention + post-fire recovery.

6,557 acres under restoration so far. Universities are monitoring long-term success. Community ownership is growing. The model works when you match the solution to the specific damage, not just plant fast and hope. What other damaged landscapes need this approach?
