Pollution

[A page describing the known effects and causes of pollution would be extremely useful, especially to newer players. Please feel free to add any information you have on the topic.]

Unfortunately, even ancient Egypt must deal with the effects of pollution. Certain buildings, such as mines and the Ore Inferno, are known to cause temporary damage to the environment. Pollution can affect such local factors as flax growth and wood harvesting.

Players with level 1 of the Ecology skill can use tadpoles to test an area for heavy metal pollution.
