Environmental Impact Reports

Data-driven measurement across all WaveWerk pilot programs

2 Active Pilots | 6-Month Reporting Cycle | Multi-Region Programs

Measurable Environmental Impact

 

WaveWerk runs active and upcoming pilot programs across Hawai‘i and the U.S. West Coast to quantify environmental outcomes through structured, data-driven reporting.

Active Pilot Programs: 2

Partner Organizations: 3

Reporting Cycle: 6 months

Regions: Burlingame, CA

Tree Canopy Pilot — Burlingame, CA (Active)

 

Summary
6 mature redwood trees (~10 years old) have been donated and are being planted throughout Burlingame to accelerate urban canopy expansion and long-term climate resilience.

Key Metrics
• GPS coordinates for each planted tree
• Individual and aggregate canopy coverage
• Estimated carbon sequestration over time

Deliverables
• Comprehensive impact report
• Canopy distribution mapping
• Growth and coverage projections
• Carbon impact modeling

Call to Action
• View Project (coming soon)
• Track Tree Locations (interactive map — in development)

Treasure Paws Reuse Impact Pilot (Active — 6-Month Study)



Summary
A six-month study quantifying the environmental benefits of reusing donated goods, with a focus on landfill diversion, water savings, and carbon reduction.

Key Metrics
• Volume of items reused
• Waste diverted from landfill
• Water savings from avoided production
• Carbon emissions avoided

Deliverables
• 20-page impact report
• Data visualizations and quantified environmental metrics

Call to Action
• Impact report in progress — available soon

NorCal Underwater Hunters — Invasive Species Pilot (Upcoming)

Status
Signed — launching in ~6 months

Focus
Targeted removal of invasive sea urchins to support kelp forest regeneration and restore marine ecosystem balance.

Key Metrics (Projected)
• Biomass removed
• Kelp restoration support
• Marine ecosystem recovery indicators
