In 2020, Jenny completed a 3,000 mile unassisted journey across the USA, lovingly called the “EarthWALK.” She was walking to raise awareness about innovative solutions to climate change through EarthSMART products and services. While we know that many renewable resources exist and are important contributors to sustainability, the 10-year window to address climate change is quickly closing and we need to move into circular and regenerative economics. EarthSMART products and services do not take a renewable resource from Mother Nature and use it separate from her. Instead, we aim to limit our engagement with fossil fuels and other extractive energy sources and foment an intelligent architectural conversation with the Earth.

One leading example of these “regenenovations” is the EarthPOD family (featuring the SparkPOD for schools). Imagine growing enough tomatoes for your entire local school without increasing your energy or water bills or contributing to climate change whatsoever. Imagine growing bananas or other tropical fruits that you never thought you could because you can control the environment inside your greenhouse. You still haven’t increased your energy bills yet either. And you’re producing fresh clean water in abundance. The SpARK POD is one model of this clever system, combining the production of seafood and vegetables in an integrated smart greenhouse. It can provide enough food for a school, while giving students a hands-on education for how to combat climate change in their own backyards.

The EarthSCHOOL program would deploy 400 SparkPODs around the world and spark a multigenerational climate learning lab and eco-showcase, making a measurable difference on our carbon emissions and our mindset for solving other climate challenges. On her journey so far, Jenny has met with top executives of major corporations, environmental non-profits, politicians, indigenous leaders, global entrepreneurs, philanthropists, musicians, inventors, and film-makers. She is working to bridge the gaps and have them come together them to come to together and fund the EarthSCHOOL initiative. She calls this “radical collaboration,” and she knows that this type of cross industry action is exactly what is needed to make an impact in our lifetime.

She also raises awareness on her way through social media, and by talking with local farmers and citizens to spread environmental consciousness in a more grassroots way, as well as listening to the concerns to the people she meets along the way and bringing them back to her team of inventors, policy-makers, and executive affiliates. This is the journey of a lifetime, but this all comes at a cost. She’s out on the trail putting in nearly a year of her time, and more importantly risking her safety, because this is a message that needs to be heard. This doesn’t have to be a climate crisis - it’s the Climate CLIMAX! The the solutions are already here. Let us show them to you.

Q: What is We Are Mother Earth?

We Are Mother Earth is a collective of individuals and companies committed to a healthier future for our next 7 generations. Our focus to fund and build “Togetherland: EarthSMART Campus Towns” has been years in the making, with many great minds and great hearts as collaborators. It is even more pertinent now, with momentum around youth climate action, to be proactive and create positive, interconnected communities that are youth led and are geared toward sparking a forever change in the hearts of humanity. These “EarthSMART Campus Towns” will function as fulcrums of cultural transformation that are rooted in a universal EarthRIGHTS covenant, branch out to the EarthMARK accreditation standards for a g(local) market production system, and grow infinitely into EarthBRAND products and services (eg. EarthSCHOOL,EarthSTORE, EarthEATS, EarthPODs, EarthTUNES, EarthFILMS, EarthAIR, etc).

Q: What is the EarthSCHOOL initiative?

A: We propose that the first fulcrum of the EarthBRAND be erected in the form of a sacred architectural structure that we call the SparkPOD. In conjunction, we are implementing a “Holistic Health Opportunities” (H20) Curriculum for schools to teach them hands-on climate smart education and mind-body-soul development. With 400 SparkPODS + the H2O Curriculum, we create “EarthSCHOOLs” all over the world that produce fresh food and clean water in abundance, rapidly drawdown carbon, recycle food waste into biofuels for use in homes and transport, and initiate an entire generation of EarthSMART engineers, artists, scientists, and citizen journalists.

Q: Why is it critical that Jenny is fully funded to raise awareness for, and ultimately fully fund the EarthSCHOOL?

The Spark POD on its own is a laboratory experience on how to grow, share and magnify the fruits of the Sun. But 400 SpARK PODS all over the world is our gift to humanity to immediately address climate change. Together, in universal alignment, we can create the carbon drawdown necessary to impact our global emissions targets. Together, we can grow enough food to feed our schools and communities - especially those that are most vulnerable like low income families and veterans. Together, our cultural revival around Mother Earth creates music that is universal. Without harmony there can be no unity. Together, in university-community partnership we can make special effects into social effects - through Togetherland regenerative film-making at participating EarthSCHOOL locations.

It is our goal to make Mother Nature at the heart of our healing process. We would like to see all of the POD systems accessible worldwide in a way that is open-source. We would also like to see sustained permaculture practices, family support centers, eco-villages, eco-tourism, and eco-music festivals built out around our POD structures. After the initial financial investment is met, the economies created by these PODs will be self-sustaining. We know, through extensive research, that relief from stressful circumstances by being in nature also helps the humans who work in these environments to prosper on levels that are intangible. We think this helps the larger cause of becoming an interconnected human family.

Q: Can't I just protest and strike like so many other activists I see? Why is Jenny's Earthwalk different than the international climate strikes?

A: The people who are striking tend to believe, and we agree, that we need to "JUST STOP" harming Mother Earth. We know in our hearts that there is no need for war, fear, want, or disease. However, most of the climate strikes are instilling a sense of panic and crisis. Jenny is walking to represent an alternative to panic. What if we told you solutions to hunger, homelessness, and hopelessness are already here....You just haven't heard about them yet? We Are Mother Earth represents a new mindset that is the antithesis of the "Climate Crisis." We believe instead that "Climate Climax" is a choice. If we choose, we can create communities where we live at peace with ourselves and our environment.
