why we're here

we work with those willing to be the driving force for change

Edges of Earth works at the frontlines of climate and conservation, partnering with communities most affected by environmental change. With extensive experience spanning global consulting and just as many spent embedded in the field, we bring a rare perspective shaped by both corporate decision-making and lived realities.

We are a team of modern explorers—think strategists and storytellers meets professional divers and field researchers—working across remote rainforests, coastal ecosystems, kelp forests, and polar regions. Through what we call "conscious exploration" and frontline climate storytelling, we identify positive deviants: individuals and communities developing effective nature-based solutions under real-world constraints.

By embedding alongside local experts, scientists, First Nations, and community leaders, we translate lived experience and field-led insight into actionable strategies. Our work helps brands, nonprofits, and institutions scale what’s already working—navigating the space between doing well and doing good while driving positive climate progress.

01 EXPEDITIONSOur expeditions operate at the frontlines of climate and conservation, exploring fragile ecosystems where serious change is unfolding. Each expedition is designed as a field-led investigation, documenting how communities and ecosystems are responding to climate pressure. Through conscious exploration and frontline climate storytelling, these expeditions surface examples of positive deviance—local solutions and practices that are succeeding against the odds. By spending extended time in place, working alongside local experts, our expeditions capture data that act as case studies.
02 CONSULTING + PRODUCTIONOur consulting work applies field-led insights and real-world climate data gathered through our expeditions to help mission-driven organizations make better decisions. Each expedition informs our consulting practice as a case study, as they reveal solutions that are already working under real environmental and social constraints. Using this evidence, we translate frontline insight into actionable strategies, combining environmental intelligence, creative thinking, and strategic execution to support sustainable growth and long-term impact.
03 GIVING BACKWhen organizations work with Edges of Earth, their engagement directly supports the frontlines of climate and conservation. Our consulting work helps fund ongoing expeditions, enabling us to identify, document, and amplify grassroots climate solutions emerging in communities most affected by environmental change. We reinvest our insights, tools, and network back into these frontline communities—supporting locals with education, upskilling, and access to critical data and resources. By making knowledge and strategic support more accessible to those with the greatest stakes and the fewest resources, we strengthen the conditions where meaningful change can take root.
