But I do like the idea; have one, big, unified time zone, vs. having several time zones, vs. letting towns make up their own individual time zones... xD

Seems to be still baseball according to #45: Baseball League Steps Up To The Plate [Pilot; ed: The SLAGLands].
There's also Calvinball (#385: Who Stands For @@NAME@@? [Panageadom; ed: Lenyo]), but I'm honestly not sure if it means baseball, American Football, or International Football.

Calvinball appears to be based off of American Football given that there's an issue there about concussions. Maybe even a hint of rugby, but concussions are much more prevalent in the former.

Actually, Calvinball is a reference to a sport played in the comic strip Calvin and Hobbes. And because that it has ever changing rules in the comic, it's safe to assume that it is a mix of tons of different sports.

I don't think China's Great Green Wall constitutes a "nuisance." Also, it does not have trees being grown in the wrong place. Based on what I've read on it so far, it seems this project was more or less successful, in fact.
One issue that can arise from "wanting/planting wrong types of trees in the wrong places" can be related to how much water/maintenance a particular kind of tree requires. For example, insisting on cultivating plants (not necessarily trees) that eat up too much water could be problematic if the region where they are planted has an arid climate. This is both financially and environmentally a bad idea. In short, if you live in Arizona, maybe you should grow cacti, not willow trees.
I think there could be an issue on that.

Some quick digging showed that someone did attempt an issue around the topic back in 2015, but it seemed narrow in options and hasn't gone anywhere. There are already a wide variety of issues surrounding the environment so would something like this be considered too much overlap even if it focused more on the minority impact? This is my first time venturing into the land of issue writing so any advice would be greatly appreciated!

There is one that is currently being edited, and it is about people being stalked by their exes, though it does broadly cover stalking issues. Depending on what kind of stalking you want to focus on, however, there might still be a place for it, of course.

I would really like to have this feature in the issue I am writing, so, I hope it is possible. Thank you!

Of course it's not time. It's never time, not on its own. You make it time. If you're under fire in the no-man's land of WW1, you start digging a foxhole even if the ideal time would be when you *aren't* being bombarded, because once you wait for it to be 'time', other situations will need your attention, assuming you survive that long. If the fields aren't furrowed, plow them. If the iron is not hot, make it so. If society is not ready, change it.
