I figured someone, somewhere, is trying to grow food that doesn’t murder the soil. Someone has terabytes of wildlife camera monitoring and drowning in footage. Someone has a brilliant idea and absolutely no software skills or budget.

Maybe we can help.

We’re just people who can code, but maybe “just people who can code” might be exactly what someone needs right now.

We’re already collaborating with some rewilding projects, and we’d like to do more of it and meet more people trying to do things that matter.

The few people we talked to, who are fighting the important fights, are using broken tools, or no tools at all.

Maybe we can be of use to people protecting and restoring ecosystems, innovating sustainable food systems, or those tracking what’s actually happening to the living world around us.

We don’t have all the answers. I don’t even have most of the questions most days, and I’m trying my best to learn. But we’re good at software, we can build things that work, and we’d rather build things that matter.

To end this thread, I’m casting a wide net but if you’re trying to save one specific part of the world and software is the thing standing between you and doing it better—please talk to us! We want to meet you.

After the catharsis of that post, I kept wondering what else I could do.

I want to build a business that nourishes us, and the world. A business that doesn’t require us to be alienated and away from each other, and one that actively helps the world, inasmuch as we can still help it.

Up until now we simply tried to “do no harm.” Naive and not enough. Now we’re asking ourselves, how do we make a positive difference? Not just in our lives, but through the work.

That got us thinking: who are the people who need help? Not to save them or disrupt them. Who’s already fighting and needs better tools? Who needs what we can do? So we can replace hope with something specific.

This is fundamentally about justice. Small island states face total uninhabitability. 5 billion depend on monsoons we're destabilizing. Those who contributed least to the crisis face the worst impacts.

Any solution that doesn't center equity, human rights & community governance isn't a real solution.

We need BOTH: emergency brake on catastrophic tipping points + accelerator on positive ones.
Listen to full episode—it'll change how you see this moment.

Strongest lever for change? Policy mandates with hard deadlines.
Ban petrol car sales by [date]. Require heat pumps over gas boilers. Phase out fossil fuel subsidies.

Clear signals coordinate investment, R&D, and entire supply chains instantly. Much faster than waiting for markets alone.

Social tipping matters too: visible, copied behaviours like cycling, plant-rich diets, and community-led restoration. When normal shifts, systems shift.

Rising from the ground up — the work of remembering we belong to what we tend.

Will Harris writes some of the most important things on mid-scale farming. If you're interested in food sovereignty, sustainable and regenerative farming, and how families and communities reliant on agriculture can thrive, he's one of my go-tos.
