Terraforming Light

Transforming desert into forest

Cloud Factory

Fishing energy Forest and water Fog

Salt

Cloud Precipitation

Artificially formed cloud causing precipitation

System of water containment & distribution

Human settlement Desert

Forest

• Cool down forest in dry season

• Add biodiversity to the environment

• Use layering of trees(forest floor,under story canopy,emergent layer etc.) to suspend water as particles to increase humidity to nature

Forest

Human settlement

• System to collect and use water inbuilt environment - building surfaces, installations, facades, transports.

• Storing water from precipitation toabsorb heat and cool down space reducing urban heat island effect

Urban heat canyon Desert

Green house over water reservoir

• Cntain water from precipitation

• Make environment humid to create habitat

• Improve soil for agriculture / firming

Transforming desert into forest

• Artificially formed cloud will be driven using curved surface from the city towards desert.

• In the desert rainfall will be induced by shooting particles at them

• Special trees will be grown to absorb more CO2
