Problem [Edit]
a multi-level problem exists on the Great Plains of North America - decline of ecosystem quality, decline in quality of beef livestock, the comparative loss of kinds and numbers of species over the long haul. Also, the consumption of beef is now linked to Alzheimer's disease.
Action [Edit]
This resource presents an alternative, visionary use of the Great Plains - the return of the bison herds, the return of wolf populations to "shepherd" and strengthen the bison, and the restoration of prairie floral systems. The overall picture uses this initial ecological renaissance as a starting point for full ecological restoration of the North American continent.
Results [Edit]
Over a thousand people visit the Earth Vision website, with a projected rise of many times that number, minimum. Readers also go on to peruse related resources.

Please note what limitations exist that would make implementing the solution ineffective or counter productive? Are there any specific barriers to adopting the solution?
E.g. "The use of wood to cook can be highly culturally dependent. For example, some communities have specific rituals for cooking which require open fires, changing the cooking stove can change the taste of food and make it harder to prepare food. Be sure to conduct thorough test studies before implementing a large-scale project so that this solution will work at scale in your project area. We recommend adapting this solution to meet the needs of your situation – such as providing micro-financing to buy stoves in areas with incomes below US$3/day."
