Eco Footprint in Cottage Living
So... I have played in the world for exactly one (1) Sim day, and the eco footprint has gone from fully green to neutral. In one day. I have no mods that should have anything to do with the footprint,...

Yes, all you need are a few garden plants if you want to send the eco footprint greenward again, @Beardedgeek
Hmph. That never works for me. I'll have loads of plants - both the planted and landscaping variety - and they don't matter a bit.
Yeah, my experience is that you have to push the limits and it is almost impossible anyway. Unless you turn footprint "off" (" " is right since the mechanic is still going in the background unless you uninstall the pack!! Typical EA). In that case all worlds everywhere slowly turns green and you cannot stop it!!.
I have had a house with over 20 garden plants, 6-7 big trees, 12 (!) solar panels, 6 (!) wind turbines and only green footprint materials in the house and it never goes fully green for more than an occasional day, mostly hovering mid way between green and neutral.
It doesn't help that virtually no eco friendly materials are good looking. Basically all good looking build and buy materials and objects such as windows are either neutral or more often Industrial. EA really wants us to only build ugly houses I guess?
