Work From Anywhere. Remote. Distributed. We provide access to private space in public places; enabling work from anywhere and much more. Did you know the number one complaint of these mobile workers is the lack of suitable workspace while on-the-go? (Starbucks is even removing all the power outlets from their stores to discourage them from lingering!) Imagine there was a network of "modern-day work booths"​ throughout the city that these folks could reserve for a quick conference call or recharge between meetings, all at a fraction of the cost of a typical shared workspace​ office. You don’t have to imagine it, we’ve already built it. Its called Jabbrrbox and its the solution for the mobile workforce. Jabbrrbox is a private, connected, clean, on-demand and secure space - set right at street level in public squares, cafes, lobbies, airports, train stations and beyond. It functions like Zipcar with an app to locate, reserve and unlock the Jabbrrbox. Folks can purchase blocks of time as little as fifteen and up to three hours.

Several billion people on depend on the ocean for food, and the life in the ocean absorbs 50% of our carbon emissions and 90% of our excess heat, while producing 25% of our oxygen. Yet overfishing, plastic and other pollution, and climate change are choking the life out of the sea. As it suffers, so will we. Conservation has been a successful strategy on land, and the science is clear that it also works in the ocean. There are already many success stories, and there need to be many more if we are to help the oceans to recover. In 2023 the UN signed the “High Seas Treaty”, committing to preserving 30% of the ocean by 2030. Our goal is to support that ambition and help make it a reality by drawing attention to the problem and the opportunity to use Marine Protected Areas to save our oceans, and building a community for change. Please visit our website and learn more about how you can help. We are a 501(c)(3) organization.
