I want Earth humans to start terraforming the man-made plastic bag island floating in the Pacific Ocean (which is currently being seen as a very long-term eco-crisis, but some birds already live on it and are already supplementing the region with nitrogen through their droppings) within the next 50 years.
People have been calling it the Great Pacific Garbage Patch. It would be interesting and hopeful to do something life-affirming with it.
Developing terraforming skills would take us far. We Earth humans must learn the skill of terraforming on-world if we ever want to help other planets manifest biospheres like Earth’s spectacular biosphere (planets interested in manifesting an Earth-like biosphere currently number in the tens within the Milky Way Galaxy), and certainly if we ever want to live on other planets.
Earth is known as the showpiece of the Milky Way Galaxy for a reason, and this plan to develop from showpiece into a prototype for other planets to pattern on in this way is central to Earth’s planetary soul plan, the Sun’s stellar soul plan, and the Milky Way Galaxy’s galactic soul plan. Earth’s life has achieved the highest density anywhere in the Galaxy, such that we have organisms with complex biologies. Earth humans sharing planet Earth’s strategies for high-density manifestation on-surface with other planets that wish to explore higher-density evolutionary states is highly desirable. Dreams of space travel hit a dead end if we don’t have a plan for learning to terraform inhospitable environments. I think it’s an important part of our future.
