Adds the concept of greenhouse gases (CO2, CH4) in the worlds atmosphere.
Furnaces emit CO2 when players smelt items in furnaces.
Trees absorb CO2 when they grow from a sapling.
Farm animals emit CH4 (Methane) when they're killed.
As GHG levels rise, global temperature rises because of the Greenhouse Effect.
As temperature rises, customizable climate effects are triggered which make ordinary gameplay more challenging.
Can help survival servers encourage forest replenishment by incentivizing players to work together to avoid world destruction.
Purpose
Ever had the hankering to turn a game meant for fun into a emulator of one of the modern worlds toughest challenges?
Observe the Prisoner's Dilemma first hand!
Players are best off when they co-operate and agree to reduce their emissions.
However, each individual player typically believes they are better off for themselves to emit as much as they wish.
Avoiding a Tragedy of the Commons can be fun! If the players don't play nice and end up dealing with the consequences, they might decide to make an agreement to fix the planet.
