Subject: Re: [permaculture] Terraforming means what?

Aloha,
It seems to me that the correct way of formulating
this would be to say "permaculture is a total
concept that can use natural agriculture,
terramechanics, terraforming,
I'm curious what y'all mean with the word "terraforming."
The contexts I know the word from (speculative fiction) put it IMO out
of synch with both ethics and design principles of permaculture.
What would be some examples of "terraforming" as you intend it to be
understood?
Or do you just mean "earthworks" in the typical permaculture sense?
mahalo,
John S.
