# Finding More Purpose in Nature and Technology



 

 

 

 

What does good look like? This has been the driving question behind Dave Erasmus’ lifelong journey in using technology to do good for the world. From running and selling tech companies in his twenties to living off grid in a hut in the woods, he reconnected with nature and found a calling in using technology to do good in the natural environment. From there, he funneled his efforts into building tools to help organizations break down their carbon footprint and understand how to actually rein it in.
