About

Organic chemistry studies organic matter. Organic Conservation keeps it alive.

Organic is founding Organic Conservation, a new field within conservation led by Forest Evergreen van Eeden. Much of conservation protects a specimen, a habitat, or a record. Organic Conservation aims to keep living things living.

Forest's work starts at the base of the system, in Organic Development: an approach to poverty alleviation that builds conservation into communities from the ground up. She works with artificial intelligence and machine learning, most recently on Atlas, an AI-powered research database for science.
