Planetary scale transformation of the living environment through techno-managerial means. The term is also likened to neo-neo colonialism; often lofty, large scale attempts to apply environmental / cultural / economic interventions to avert climate disaster.
Pierce Meyer: I could say a little bit about what I think Strelka is. Maybe The Terraforming actually is a little easier to describe. The idea is that we've been designing the planet as a species since the Neolithic Revolution, but we've been doing it really badly. And there’s sort of the terraforming that we have, and it's going kind of badly. And there's the terraforming that we need, which is premeditated and planned and logically considered planetary design in the context of all this stuff that's happening, climate collapse, social collapse.
