I want to see someone do forest gardens / permaculture at scale. Right now the largest projects have only been a handful of acres. I'd like to see someone setup a forest garden that's 1000+ acres, so that we can learn more about the economics, viability, and best practices for actively managing entire continents to passively produce food the way the native americans supposedly did.
I realize this is out there, but I also think it's something that's viable from a cost perspective, and also has the ability to capture people's imagination like few other things. I'd also like to see an emphasis on promoting fungi in the ecosystem. Right now there isn't a single park in the entire world that's actively managed to promote the growth of edible mushrooms. And while setting that up would take 20+ years, it wouldn't be that expensive and again I think there would be something kind of magical about it.
