Southern California Post-Fire Bioremediation Coalition

The SoCal Post-Fire Bioremediation Coalition is a collective of non-profit organizations in partnership with scientists, universities, community groups and organizers working together to heal fire-impacted landscapes in Los Angeles, Altadena and surrounding Southern California regions. Through innovative bioremediation, we aim to restore soil health, mitigate toxic runoff and create a model for sustainable wildfire recovery that benefits both communities and ecosystems.

Wildfires are increasing in frequency and severity across California, leaving behind toxic ash, contaminated soil, and degraded ecosystems. Conventional post-fire recovery methods often rely on costly, industrial-scale debris removal that doesn’t address long-term soil health or contamination risks. Our coalition is dedicated to deploying nature-based solutions that stabilize burned landscapes while promoting ecological restoration and community resilience.
