Today we’re announcing a wetland restoration and research project to restore a degraded salt pond and advance the science of carbon removal — right in Google’s backyard.
For over a century, salt production has displaced Bay Area tidal marshes with industrial ponds, impacting water quality, biodiversity and ecosystem health. Decades of restoration efforts are now reviving these degraded areas into thriving ecosystems that benefit local communities and wildlife alike.
We’re building on this work alongside the South Bay Salt Pond Restoration Project and Ducks Unlimited to restore Pond A1, right next to Google’s Mountain View campus. We’re also partnering with California-based academic researchers to use this project as a living laboratory, accelerating novel approaches to quantifying the positive benefit of wetlands restoration on carbon removal.
