- 0_____0 2y agoIn isolation I'd think of it as cute turn of phrase, but I've heard it about a dozen times unironically using 'terraforming' in place of 'landscaping.' I think you could artfully call Las Vegas a terraforming project on account of it being in the middle of the desert and needing water brought in, but otherwise it's just using the wrong word.
