You can now plant a legacy tree in honor of someone you love.
Whether it’s a cherished pet, a beloved friend, or a family member whose memory still stirs your heart—this is a way to let their story live on. Every life that touched ours deserves recognition, and every tree planted becomes a living tribute to love, loss, and the hope that follows. Learn More
Why is this project so important?
In a word: humanity.
Not the kind etched in "policy" or polished into slogans, but the kind that trembles beneath the floodwaters, clings to rooftops, and vanishes in the silence after the storm, to be buried by those lucky enough to survive.
For over two decades, I stood at the fault line between science and catastrophe, building hurricane models and working with LEO satellites that whispered truths most refused to hear. With each ground zero event, the whispers grew louder.
Then came the assessment, the one that changed everything. I traced data back to the 1800s, expecting noise. What I found was a pattern and a reckoning. The numbers didn’t just speak, they mourned. They named the species already gone. They mapped the habitats collapsing in real time. They forecast not just destruction but the disappearance of our essence.
The data not only revealed the frequent catastrophes we track but also the fragile lives we fail to protect because of our complacency. In that moment, something inside me fractured. The data didn’t just inform me; it broke me.
From that break, a new resolve emerged: not to predict the next ground-zero event, but to restore what remains. To fight for the fragile and suffering of many species. Welcome to my resistance.
This is not the time for debate.
Species are vanishing, some forever. Those who debate will try to lure you into their doubt and lack of understanding. Lip service and performance won’t rebuild coral reefs or bring back the last migratory songbird.
Rather than debate, we need hands in the soil, boots on the ground, and minds committed to restoration. Every moment spent debating denial is a moment stolen from genuine action and another species gone.
It begins with us.
On July 5, 2024, I became the proud owner of 160 acres of land. I have the Deed and the desire to do something meaningful. We’re officially incorporated as a nonprofit in Florida, and our 501(c)(3) application is currently under review with the IRS. We’re excited to move forward with our mission while we await final determination.

More than a cause
Jackson Earth Restoration & Research Center is a sanctuary where remembrance becomes resilience. Each tree we plant to fight climate change also honors a loved one and offers hope to future generations. Guided by peer-reviewed science and the wisdom of seasoned farmers, we chose the desert for its lessons, revealing microbial life and soil patterns that help us heal rapidly depleting fertile ground threatened by industrial works.
Our work uplifts community strengths, not deficiencies, and invites everyone into the process. We listen, learn, and lead together, recognizing local voices, embracing diversity, and building lasting restoration through shared vision and mutual care. Jackson Earth is more than a nonprofit; it’s a living promise and a response. We would rather make a difference instead of excuses.
Volunteer and join us
The mission of Jackson Earth Restoration & Research Center is to heal land, honor memory, and protect the future through a fusion of scientific restoration, ritual remembrance, and community resilience.
It serves as a sanctuary where:
- Ecological restoration is guided by scientific method and symbolic meaning
- Living memorials—like dedicated trees to honor lives lost and inspire hope
- Climate resilience research supports future generations through biocrust trials, pollinator monitoring, and disaster modeling
- Volunteer rituals foster belonging, protection, and legacy
At its heart, Jackson Earth Restoration is a place where every protocol is like a prayer and hope for the future of humanity, every shovel a gesture of remembrance, and every partnership a promise to the land and those who walk it.

"Mardis" offers a brief yet intriguing exploration of physics, psychology, and theology, starting with the tale of Mardis, the author's grandmother on her deathbed. In her final moments, she imparted her last experiences and wisdom in a profound and unexpected manner. She pried open the threshold between life and death, allowing Dean to interpret his grandmother’s ultimate reflections when words failed her. As Mardis left the mortal realm, she bequeathed a cosmic conundrum that profoundly altered Dean's perception of reality and his own identity.
