Ongoing Projects
Our chapters are working on a variety of solutions for environmental problems – here are a few of them!
Our Journey
From Science Project to Global Initiative
The Beginning
Our inception is rooted in Ryan Honary’s award-winning science project, inspired by the devastation caused by California’s 2018 Camp Fire.
The system, built with Raspberry Pi, was initially designed for the early detection of wildfires and leveraged machine learning to predict their growth with 70-80% accuracy.
Along with numerous other recognitions, Ryan was named a Top 30 finalist in the Broadcom MASTERS, the nation’s premier STEM middle school competition. He’s also had the opportunity to speak about his technology during UNESCO – Learning Planet and the United Nations General Assembly SDG Action Weekend.
Awards & Recognitions

Red Cross Disaster Services Hero Award
Broadcom Masters Top 30 Finalist
Orange County Business Journal's OC 500
LearningPlanet Youth Fellowship
IB Global Youth Action Fund Award
The Creation of CSS
With the momentum from his accolades, Ryan founded SensoryAI, further honing the technology that powered his early wildfire detection system.
This became a cornerstone for a broader vision – the Climate Solutions Society (CSS), which was announced at the UNESCO Learning Planet Festival in 2023. Ryan is a Learning Planet Fellow.
