Successful results will be incredibly valuable for society and the company. That’s VC. However, before anything can happen, large investments of capital are needed from investors with a vision to see what society will need/want before they know they want it. (Think if you really felt you needed an iPhone, or Google Search/Maps/Mail in 1990?). That’s VC. We’re already seeing public opinion shift on climate change as it did on marijuana legalization.

From an environmental perspective, how awesome would it be to have ten companies competing with DroneSeed for contracts to reforest the planet? We’re happy to have a head start.
