    Description

    Description

    We are looking for applicants based in North America only and can work Eastern Standard Time (EST).

    Our main editor for the last 7 years has just departed. His background was a PhD in the Philosophy of Science. He was also able to format the articles on WordPress, and while that would be ideal, we would consider an additional volunteer for that role.

    Who we are

    Remineralize the Earth (RTE) is a woman-led, international nonprofit based in Northampton, MA.

    Remineralization utilizes finely ground rock dust and sea-based minerals to restore soils and forests, produce higher yields and more nutritious food, and store carbon in soils to stabilize the climate. Through our education and outreach, projects, research, and advocacy Remineralize the Earth facilitates a worldwide movement that brings together gardeners and farmers, scientists and policymakers, and the public to create better soils, better food, and a better planet.
