Oni makes it clear that, at the time of Oni's events, life in the cities is made possible by huge air-cleaning facilities (the ACCs). Oni does not disambiguate the initial source of the pollution (the manual -- for what it's worth -- simply says that "the air has gone bad"). Preexistent pollution (modern-day-like) may have been complemented by biological warfare before or during the Uprising, then by careless or unlucky "recycling" of obsolete technology during the WCG-imposed standardization, and finally by ill side effects of ACCs themselves. | Oni makes it clear that, at the time of Oni's events, life in the cities is made possible by huge air-cleaning facilities (the ACCs).

The air cleaning process results not only in clean air, but in large quantities of extracted pollutants (toxins etc) that must be somehow contained and eventually disposed of. Somewhat disturbingly, toxic waste disposal is never detailed in Oni.

Somewhat disturbingly, toxic waste disposal is never detailed in Oni. Just because it is never stated that waste is simply carried away and dumped somewhere, doesn't mean that it isn't (carried away and dumped). Perhaps some advanced technology (Phase-based or not) is used to neutralize the toxicity (before dumping?) or the WCG has made attempts to teleport the waste to another dimension (and failed?) -- we do not know. | ||
