A micro-industrial forestry project grown with waste water on brownfields, Urban Biofilter bioremediates water, soil and air while shielding residents from industry and transportation routes.

UBB picked up by Earth Island!

As of May 18th, we are now officially, a project of Earth Island Institute!

Among other great activities, Earth Island Institute acts as an incubator for start-up environmental projects, giving crucial assistance to groups and individuals with new ideas for promoting ecological sustainability. We are very excited to have the EII as an umbrella non-profit.

On Tuesday, June 2nd @ 12pm, we will be presenting the Urban Bamboo Biofilter project at Earth Islands office in the new David Brower Center.

Please come out if you'd like to see what we're up to.

Stay tuned for a more expansive website and new developments.
We are still looking for financial support, interns and volunteers.
