Disasters happen. Communities come together to recover and rebuild. Governments and NGOs help however they know how.
Will Heegaard sees every disaster as a chance to build back greener. His non-profit provides power and water from nature.
· power from the sun – instead of gas generators
· water from the air – instead of plastic water bottles
He helped with disaster relief from hurricanes in Florida, North Carolina, and Puerto Rico.
He helped in West Africa, in the Philippines, and with the Maui Fires.
He helped with the LA Fires.
And he taught himself to create power and water from nature while serving as a paramedic in Black Rock City.
These adventure stories include laughter and levity in learning.
