<aside> 💡 In THE WILD LAND, your goal is to develop your economy, but that doesn't necessarily mean destroying your environment. So what choices will you make today? Will you choose to live in a society dying of disasters, or will you respect your space and move towards a responsible society?  The future will tell. We will detail here the different issues of the ecological index.

What is the ecological index ?

On the left side of your screen, an ecological index bar indicates the state of your world. If the environmental status drops too low, disasters will occur.

How is this index counted ?

We use two methods to assess your ecological index :

• Firstly, depending on the buildings you build, points are taken away or added. For example, the Acid Mortar removes 10 points from the Ecological Index. For more details, we recommend that you look at the Ecological Index section of the Building Guide.
• Have you noticed all those little animals living peacefully? If your tusks kill them, you will also lose ecological value, so be careful not to build dangerous tusks next to an animal's habitat.

What dangers?

If your ecological index is too low, disasters will happen, it could be a fire or even an earthquake. It would be a pity to lose your valuable buildings, so act !

How to regain the ecological index?

To regain the ecological index, you can use cooling kits that you can build in the snow tiles. Unfortunately, this does not exist in real life ! 😂
