The challenge

Bring more attention to forest surveillance feeds by finding people who already spend time waiting together online.

The idea

Creators replace their Starting Soon screens with live forest camera feeds. Viewers flag a camera number in chat when they spot smoke, with moderation and escalation to emergency services built into the process. The pilot uses an existing community ritual for a public-service task.
