WATER IS ALIVE | Bioremediation for a healthier planet.
A WIN-WIN-WIN SCENARIO
Who doesn’t like clean, fresh water; healthful air; nutrient-rich soil; and a vibrant, diverse habitat?
As science continues to prove to us, these things are continually under threat due to systems and powers that allow for an abuse of contaminants that put every one of us at risk of poor health and wellbeing.
We have the power, resources, and know-how to implement sustainable practices on both a personal and corporate level with real results in almost real time. Not sometime in the future or when policies finally call for reductions.
The ultimate mission of Water Is Alive is to drive positive action via measurable, proven results. We call it a Win-Win-Win For All. We’re using science to employ realistic, healthy, and scalable immediate solutions to bioremediate (aka “clean up”) our waterways and soil so that we can all enjoy a life of harmony, abundance, and regeneration.
For businesses, investing in and reporting on Environmental governance and remediation has become an important part of business life. Our work aligns perfectly with helping companies and organizations realize their sustainability goals (ESG) while reducing costs across a number of areas – most notably in the revitalization of the vast agriculture and manufacturing sectors of our economy.
PLEASE DONATE TO FUND OUR WORK AND OUR DOCUMENTARY PROJECT!
While we receive minimal grants for our work, we rely on the support of engaged citizens like you to fund our on-the-ground work! Please donate today and we’ll keep you up-to-date with our steady progress, solutions, partnerships, and information on what you can do. Want to be part of our film? We’re also working on a documentary project and would love to count you as one of our citizen producers with a donation!
As of Fall 2023, we have received a large grant from the EPA (Environmental Protection Agency). The United Nations has also recognized our invaluable work to augment their Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Please see some of our Projects & News below!
At the heart of our work is…
the billions-of-years-old fact that the power to metabolize pollution is ‘alive’ in many microorganisms. Water Is Alive is continuing work to prove that we can use food grade microorganisms grown on organic waste & agricultural by-products to clean up contamination — AT SCALE.
Our biological remediation (bioremediation) process utilizes pre-consumer fruit and vegetable organic wastes as the carrier substrates of beneficial microorganisms that can break down nutrients and contaminants that lead to surface and ground water impairments. Translation: Single celled microbes will eat fruits and chemicals!
We have positive results from The Trinity River Bioremediation Project as well as bio-filtration methods which can be applied to any impaired waterway. Fresh, clean water is the most important resource in our lives. And it our mission to make sure it’s available and abundant for current and future generations.
Water Is Alive also provides educational services and resources.
Anaerobic fermentation of organic wastes on small, medium and large scale, remediation of soil and water utilizing organic wastes, resources on permitting for waterway and Brownfield remediation, research collaboration efforts and partnerships.
We have years of work to get permits in order to demonstrate viable bioremediation and would love to share our knowledge and resources. Remediation is usually very expensive and we can help make your project more affordable and viable!
Inspiring action locally and globally
Join us in learning how to apply these natural remedies to clean up our many brownfields (a.k.a. contaminated plots of land) and our impaired waterways. We can start as soon as today to clean up pollution together.

Why Make Biostimulants from Organic Wastes? Saturday August 13, 2022 10:00 am – 11:00 Agrilife Research and Extension Center 17360 Coit Road, Dallas, Texas 75252 Price: Free
AgriLife Bermuda and pepper plant biostimulant study.jpg
Join us for an all-ages Saturday morning at the Dallas AgriLife Research Center where you will learn how to: Make biostimulants by fermenting your organic kitchen wastes. Take a tour of where we are building soil at the Research Center from agricultural by-products to grow and test organic waste-based biostimulants on Bermuda grass. Learn about how to apply biostimuants to Bermuda grass and garden plants and why that can help improve the water quality in our watershed and the health of your plants. Learn about the science of why fermenting onion juice, and many other fermenting agricultural by-products, can ward off insects, and which common insects can be controlled by the application of your home-made biostimulant. Learn about the Trinity River Bioremediation Demonstration Project and how strategically applying fermenting agricultural wastes to impaired waterways can improve water quality. During the interactive morning session Water Is Alive will demonstrate some of the ways biostimulants can be used to improve plant nutrient uptake by applying biostimulants and mycelium such as mycorrhizae. The first 10 participants will receive a gallon of onion-based biostimulant and a sample of mycorrhizae fungi.
