Pollution
Overview
Certain actions and building operations produce changes in the local environment which, although invisible to the eye, may affect the growth of flax and other crops as well as wood collection. The Ecology skill is used to test for pollution in a location.
Pollution is not well understood; see below for discussion on what does and does not appear to cause it. However, based on what may be tested using the Ecology skill, we can assume that there are eight environmental categories where pollution can occur:
- Heavy metal pollution
- Soil acidity
- Groundwater level
- Phosphorus level
- Soot level
- Nitrogen level
- Potassium level
- Salinity
