🌍 Planetary Nervous System (PNS)

Imagine a world where the Earth could sense environmental changes, coordinate responses, and heal itself—just like your body does. The Planetary Nervous System (PNS) is a groundbreaking project turning this vision into reality. By combining cutting-edge technology with decentralized, community-driven solutions, PNS creates a self-organizing network that mirrors the planet’s natural intelligence.

🌟 Core Vision: A Nervous System for the Earth

Inspired by how forests connect through underground mycorrhizal networks and how your body responds to injuries, PNS enables Earth to: • Sense environmental conditions in real-time. • Coordinate resources to solve problems. • Heal ecosystems through collective action.

This isn’t a centralized solution—it’s an organic, decentralized system designed to serve all life on Earth.

🔑 Key Features

1. True Decentralization

   • No single entity can control more than 5% of nodes. • Operations span across 50+ countries. • Decisions are made democratically, ensuring community ownership.

2. Environmental Priority

   • Real-time environmental monitoring. • Automatic responses to ecological threats. • Mandatory validation of positive environmental impact.

3. Community Ownership

   • Transparent governance and operations. • Fair distribution of resources and responsibilities. • Collective action for the benefit of ecosystems.
