Our Pledge and Commitment
The ACRE Pledge
ACRE believes that the most meaningful environmental progress happens when people work together at the local level, with shared goals, clear accountability, and practical execution.
The ACRE Pledge commits our organization to restoring forests, watersheds, and working landscapes at scale, beginning with wildfire-impacted communities across California, Oregon, and New Mexico. Our focus is not on symbolic targets or abstract promises, but on outcomes that improve quality of life for people while rebuilding resilient ecosystems.
Together, we can do more. ACRE was built on the idea that collaboration multiplies impact. By aligning landowners, agencies, tribes, contractors, investors, and communities around shared objectives, we unlock delivery capacity that no single group could achieve alone.
Our work prioritizes human welfare alongside ecological recovery. Healthy forests protect water supplies, reduce future fire risk, support rural economies, and create long-term stability for the communities that depend on them. Environmental restoration is not separate from quality of life. It is foundational to it.
ACRE’s pledge represents a commitment to act locally, execute responsibly, and scale what works. We invest in people, supply chains, and systems that turn plans into progress, and progress into lasting benefit.
Built for Collective Impact
ACRE operates as a project developer and delivery partner, designed to bring diverse stakeholders together around shared outcomes.
We coordinate across public agencies, private landowners, tribal partners, contractors, nurseries, and workforce programs to remove friction from implementation. By managing risk early and maintaining visibility across the full supply chain, we help projects move forward with confidence.
This collaborative model reflects a growing recognition across global climate and sustainability initiatives that durable solutions must be grounded in real communities, real jobs, and real delivery.

Practical Climate Action, Delivered Locally
ACRE’s work aligns with a broader shift toward pragmatic climate action being embraced across the private sector, where investments increasingly focus on measurable outcomes, resilient systems, and long-term value.
Rather than chasing headlines, we concentrate on execution. Our projects are designed to restore landscapes in ways that reduce risk, improve ecosystem function, and strengthen the economic and social fabric of rural and underserved areas.
By integrating workforce development, monitoring, and adaptive management into every project, we ensure that restoration delivers benefits that endure well beyond the planting season.
