Faction creation contest for ecologist race

Im all for more!

Its funny that thus far the mantle of "ecologists" falls towards the Horatio most of all. This is reasonable in 2 ways; more beautiful Horatio worlds, and to feed more beautiful Horatios. 

Then the Unfallen came along, whom from the outside may appear like ecologist yet are truly literal tree-hippees (in a sense they are ecologists= good food production AND incredbile terraformers). 

What would your stance on this new empire be? Tree people are already taken, but botanical-based species overall is still there. Why are these people ecologists? Is it for benevolent or maniacle purpose (do they grow guns on trees?). AMP took an interesting perespective on ecologists in Legends, where the Wildwalkers were just that, yet had incredible infastructure as well.
