High-Level Project Summary
We created a superhero based on the world's most important power, self-renewal. First of all, our difficulty is that natural disasters such as forest fires, soil degradation and man-made destructions have bad effects on the Earth. For example, after a forest fire, it can recreate a burning forest. This is achieved by the power of Meristem Tissue, which the Earth gives to plants, and inorganic substances that never run out in the soil. At the same time, some creatures feed on the roots of old plants. When they leave the parts they cannot digest in the soil as feces, nitrogen is formed. The importance of this is the fact that life will never end by being renewed thanks to this power.

Detailed Project Description
First of all, the feature that we thought about the superpower of the world was the ability of the world to renew itself. For example, the park, which was named the USA Yellowstone National Park in 1988, is known as the largest natural park fire in the history of the USA. Millions of trees and plants were destroyed in this fire, which burned 36% of the park. But after this fire, nature started to renew itself and in 1989 grass and plants started to grow again. By 2011, 80% of the burned areas turned green again. To give an example from forest fires; We have to ask how the Earth renews itself. First of all, “Meristem Tissue” is a type of tissue that allows the plant to grow. This tissue is found in every plant. In this way, it can renew itself. In addition, the inorganic substances in the soil do not disappear as a result of the fire, so the fire areas become normal again. The regeneration of the earth also has the benefit of living things. Trees will make their old leaves fall and they have plant fibers and bones a like things that animal body can't digest and when they get out from the animal body they infuse with dirt as chemical. These chemicals are important because they play a role in the eco-cycle. Decomposition of organic materials with parse’s are important part of cycle because they let the organic material to decompose. Parses are playing important role in the food chain and give a circular structure thanks to Parse’s. The group called these Parse’s are last bond of food chain. For photosynthesis plants are using other minerals from dirt are sun and trees are using their old leaves for mineral, animals are taking of things like bones and plant fibers that contain minerals but can't digest from animal body. All these dead materials are out of energy but they are still important for life because they contain integral part of all creature that have chemicals. These chemicals are going back to nutrient network with the help of parses.
We used Wix, Adobe (illustrator, character animator, premiere pro or after effects) during the 48 hours.
Inorganic materials never run out. Because all of them are on a cycle of their own examples are such as: water, CO2 and nitrogen.
Meristem, region of cells capable of division and growth in plants. Meristems are classified by their location in the plant as apical (located at root and shoot tips), lateral (in the vascular and cork cambia), and intercalary (at internodes, or stem regions between the places at which leaves attach, and leaf bases. Apical meristems give rise to the primary plant body and are responsible for the extension of the roots and shoots.

To give a specific example of how we use the resources and how they inspire us;
We did a universal resource search. Thus, our perspective of ideas has also expanded. We supported our theses and ideas with the articles we found. As a result, we have a consistent solution.
Hackathon Journey
During this journey, we developed our sense of research, group work, division of labor and responsibility. We have learned more about the problems of the world, we have learned about the work done so far against these problems, what people think about these issues and what can be done. The fact that we have the knowledge and experience of this challenge and we want to try to make the world better the way it is now caused us to choose this challenge. In our approach to the project, the questions of what are the most important problems of the world, how can we make the world better, what have people done wrong so far and what can be done have been influential. We tried to find solutions by holding meetings with our team in the face of difficulties and setbacks, consulting with experienced and knowledgeable people, and voting in cases where we disagreed. Finally, we would like to thank GGT Board Member Muhammed Akif Ünal and our mentor Semra Demir, who have never spared their help and support since our team was first established. Also, we would like to thank our family, teachers and friends.
