How about introducing a 'sustainable yield'?

For examples, there are potatoes available. To start with there is 10,000g of potatoes, which, if left unharvested, will grow to add an extra, say, 1000g a day. If more than 1000g a day is harvested, than the total will decrease, to the extent that there are no potatoes anymore, and they will have to be left to grow before they can be harvested.

The 'sustainable yield' could be something like enough growth to allow say 4 people with the tools or harvesters to continually harvest.

This would mean that working as a farmer would be a much more porfitable and important job, and in highly populated areas, farming would have to be regulated to make sure that the area does not run out of food...

It's just a thought...


Resource depletion, or at least the need for resource management. Something I've suggested over and over again, and still think would be a great idea, especially as it works to encourage active governance of some form which is often lacking ('governments' on Cantr are often little more than place-based corporations).
Whoever you vote for.

The government wins.

I like having pup there. He doesn't overdo it. He only wags his tail or plays with his chew toys a few times a week.

We were debating if someone could act like a dog - It brings back good memories of my character there.

Good topic!
