GlobalClimateTracker accumulates carbonPpm each sim cycle from total regional air pollution (emissions) minus total tree-canopy pressure (carbon sink). The resulting warmingLevel (0–1, representing 0–5°C anomaly) feeds three effects: - AtmosphereModule subtracts getRainPenalty() (up to -0.15) from every region's rain target, creating planet-wide drought as warming rises. - Bootstrap post-sim pass raises drought risk by warming * 0.02 per cycle, giving warming a second, persistent drought pathway. - Carbon state persists across sessions in living_world/global_climate.dat so climate change accumulates over a playthrough. /lw climate shows: Carbon: 342 ppm (+62 ppm) | Warming: +1.1°C | Biodiversity: 73% | Rain penalty: -3% Deforestation accelerates warming; reforestation reverses it — the mod now rewards long-term forest stewardship at a planetary scale.
