Drought idea: droughts decrease with increased greenery

I think it would be fun to add a mechanic that causes the drought season to shorten by the percentage of grass tiles vs barren tiles present, or something along those lines. This would give an additional avenue to surviving droughts. We already can do so by stockpiling supplies and water, but with this we can also survive droughts by terraforming the land.

While I would like to see some methods of making droughts easier to deal with, I’m not sure I’d agree with this method. In order to affect the climate, you’d have to terraform an area many, many, *many* times the size of the maps we build on currently.

There could be special farming projects, like a 'life tree' or something that you would need to keep growing/watered over months as an end-game project to 'solve' the droughts?
