@Kondaru i'll check for myself as i don't recall the convo going like that. but if it's right. i'll have to concur. though i still think tapping the gas veins is still an environmental issue.

you're right, i'm wrong. though you still have to choose between: advent/prodromos & the environment. i happen to think siding with prodromos is the right call in this situation. you don't. that's it.

A few things to keep in mind about the gas issue. One, most planets have a "carrying capacity", essentially what it can absorb and support. Even if we dump all of the Initiative on Eos that is only around 100k people. Add in the methane and you are still well below pollutant levels produced at any time in Earth's history. Even on pre-Columbian North America there was more people and methane production (considering that there were an estimated 60 million buffalo alone) than on Eos, granted that Eos probably does currently have less vegetation that North America at the time as well
Second, Eos does have incredible terraforming capabilities running, which should more than cover any emissions produced.
Third, we don't know exactly how planets work, so human produced greenhouse gasses may or may not override standard planetary cycles
Anyway, I decided to help out Advent, so I stay on good terms with both!🙂
