This is a niche within a niche within a niche. It's a Mamushka niche.

If you are involved, I wish you the best. You are doing very noble work. My humble advise is that you promote it wherever you can to attract all the people you can. This project is awesome.

Many people think this is the case, but it is not. If you include everything that affects the climate, everything that is affected by the climate, and all the technologies that are needed to adapt to and combat the climate, you end up with a lot of projects. On OpenSustain.tech we have listed about 1400 projects with an active community. Almost all of them are relevant to climate change because every part of the environment is affected by it. Even just looking at climate models, the amount of software needed to make good predictions is not that small.
