My feed is filled with bad news, which is my fault for using the fediverse as a news feed, but it made me wonder: Which organisations, groups or individual people in the world are doing the most good for our world? I’m particularly interested in those who manage to do good on a larger impact scale (quantity or quality), but if the unknown person on your street who fosters kittens is a great example, I’d love to hear about them too.

Mr. Rogers told me to look for the helpers in times of trouble. Tell me about your favorite helpers!

    Stunning initiative! Some real-life Dune ecology going on.

    As you said, it’s not just the greening angle, they’re providing jobs and generational stability to the region, which is far more important than what would otherwise be a quick and short win.

      Frank Hebert was an actual ecological consultant on top of being a writer. But yes, the scale of such a project is closer to sci-fi.
