Welcome to RegenTO

We work to educate, engage and inspire people to act on the known and proven solutions to the climate and biodiversity crisis. Through projects and partnerships, we collaborate with individuals and groups across the Greater Toronto Bioregion to promote possibilities for regeneration with a sense of agency.

Embracing nature as the source of life and well-being is the key. Accepting our shared responsibility and acting together make a thriving future possible. We believe in creating a flourishing, regenerative world, with a climate, watersheds and ecosystems that are healthy for the children of all species for generations to come. We are learning this together; we invite you to join us!

About Us

Our Podcast

Regenerating Toronto has a new podcast and it's available for streaming now on Spotify!

We developed this podcast to further explore the ideas of local regenerators who are creating change. We share stories of courage, activism, and scientific insights to inspire greater connection, appreciation, and action to protect our planet. 

In our first episode, we speak with Jocelyn Molyneux, founder of Wastenot Farms. Learn what makes soil alive and why peat is essential for keeping carbon out of the atmosphere.

Solutions in Action

Learn about solutions that are already at work in our communities to offset the climate crisis. Our approach builds on the work of Project Drawdown and Project Regeneration’s Nexus list of climate solutions and challenges. We’ve added substantial local information centred on our bioregion, Ontario and Canada.

We’re starting with a few fundamental solutions that connect everything: Freshwater, Peatlands and Connection to Nature. 

Peatlands

Protect and restore threatened peatlands, one of the most ecologically diverse and carbon-rich ecosystems on the planet.

freshWater

Conserve freshwater and restore water cycles at multiple scales using regenerative practices, collaborative management, and innovative technologies.

nature connection

Restore human connections with nature to improve well-being, regenerate planetary ecosystems, and cultivate regenerative values.

"Regeneration puts life at the centre of every action and decision.
It applies to all of life – grasslands, farms, insects, forests, fish, wetlands,
coastlands and oceans – and it applies equally to family, communities,
cities, schools, religion, commerce and governments.
And most spectacularly to climate."

– Project Regeneration
