Potentially a moar politically correct name: **large scale ecosystem restoration**. Humans as part of nature, working with nature.

Existing example of pumping water from below the melting glaciers:

Cloud seeding:

It is already happening, so may as well be part of the ecosystem.

As the climate crisis is accelerating, ensuring liveable future for humanity becomes bigger and bigger challenge. It's totally possible to work with nature and design a liveable future. Rainforest is rainforest because it recycles moisture... In fact there are many "rainforest" areas around the world due to mountains that stop clouds on one side and trigger rainfall. It's all doable, as humanity we have capacity to pull it off. 

An institution to research, educate, advocate, regulate, supervise solutions for **large scale ecosystem restoration**.

# Collaborative effort
All projects in this round are under the umbrella of the Planetary Council. Too many of them 🙈 Need to focus, need to prioritise, that’s why dedicated round acting as community vote. We also welcome _(more than welcome)_ potential supporters and collaborators 

Starting a project _(hackathon or otherwise)_ is just a first step on the journey. Some people are better with starting multiple projects _(connectedness, finding gaps in the market)_ some people are better as **BUSINESS OPERATORS** who enjoy single minded focus. If you are one of these people: please join the effort 🙏
