I would hope that if we can correct for whatever we did to cuase the global warming... either by reducing industry, or some other method of reducing global warming gases that we'd be returning the planet back to how it was before we... "invaded."

With the Planetary Council in mind, does anyone have thoughts on what measures might be appropriate? If industrial production triggers global warming, as it did on Earth, should measures be taken to restore the preexisting climate? Or is this unsanctionable human meddling, as the Gaians might say? Just fishing for thoughts.

I would argue that we should take steps to limit the damage by launching a solar shade. We can't just turn back the clock, and I would be firmly against any attempt to put Planet back 'the way it was before' (though I have no problem with the idea of having reservationsin which the environment is left alone), but we can try to limit the damage to ourselves and the environment.

Again, i still believe in letting wars come to us, while still maintaining quite a defensive and mobile force.
About the environment, I do agree that we should go green and minimize as much as possible any pollution or ecological damage, but i don't agree at being green to the extreme and becoming zealots like the believers.
besides, from some of the theories and reports on mind worms, they are the worlds anti bodies and anti-polluter police, so we don't need the peacekeepers to do that as well.
As for the PLanetary Council, i suggest we push for Planetary GOvernor and take control of the Mission of colonizing this world and protecting what is left of humanity.

Mellian, it's a given that we should try to go for Planetary Governor.

*bows in direction of GeneralTacticus*
Thank you for pointing this place out to me. I humbly ask the assembled body if I can join The Empath Guild.

Not for now. Although if we meet other survivors on Planet, I believe that if our faction is militarily superior, we can strong arm them to join up with us...

Have not been in this thread for a while but glad to see a mature approach to the environment and native life beginning to take shape.
Even from General Tacticus. It will not shock citizens that he is a prime suspect in the serial killer enquiry. But I can't say much more at the moment. It is possible we will take it to trial.

Don't think I didn't notice that Frankychan. I suspect you're likely to be a chief suspect in murder enquiries yet to come.
I didn't notice that you wore a support. But what ever turns you on.

Are you familiar with the term "habeas corpus"?

I wonder somewhat at the impartiality or lack thereof of this investigation, given that the chief investigator seems to be hell-bent on pinning the crime on me, without any evidence, and is also the sole member of the STEP. a party which has as yet been unable to answer criticisms of it's policies.

 This place is supposed to be about inter-faction related stuff but has degenerated into a "witch-hunt" for a murderer.
Hercules-I have multiple witnesses who would testify on my behalf. I have committed no murder.....treason on the other hand......

Empathic abilities are handy for a murder enquirer.
Just finding an excuse for allowing spam...

that sounds all right to me. But maybe not ALL techs. depending on which faction it is, we could give them tech that wouldn't be that beneficial to them...and in return, we'd obtain tech that would vastly improve our faction.
