:Smog. Yes... We could say polluted air but that's what smog is, too. In Oni's case most of the population is concentrated in cities, and that is where smog gets [[wikipedia:Smog#Health_effects|''heavy'' and poisonous]]. Now I wonder if the quarantine zones aren't cleaner. ^_^

:The city air in Oni is definitely not ''clean'', at least not all the time, and the air's [[wikipedia:Toxicity|toxicity]] is an issue.

:It is, however, remarkably ''clear'', even though late autumn is not the best period to scan a modern city for smog.

:We know from at least four sources (console reports, [[Talk:Hasegawa|Fuji article]], airport poster and Hasegawa's diary) that polluted air and/or quarantined zones had existed before the Big Bang (abnormal [[STURMANDERUNG]] pulse set off by Mai). The causes and direct consequences aren't mentioned. We can speculate that the citizens are often required to wear "[[:Image:TXMPPOSTER1.png|HAPEMASK]]" [[wikipedia:Respirator|respirators]] as protection against airborne pollutants and that the natural environment is contaminated with [[wikipedia:Virulent|virulent]] pathogens (toxins/bacteria/viruses).

:152ppm was the last measured [[wikipedia:Dioxin|dioxin]] level in the [[Quotes/Consoles/level_19c|Sturmanderung report]]; after the Big Bang the pollution and their symptoms will be much more and stronger.

:According to an [[ACC]] report "Class 4 airborne toxins" can arise when inverting the cleaning process. Whatever this means isn't clear - at least, Konoko talked about "The dead and the dying now line the streets" in the outro, so the effect must be enormous.

:After browsing Wikipedia a lot on those two aspects the statements in the material I found kept drifting in the direction of conspiracy theories. I'd like to stay away from that. Oni eigenes Material und dazugehörige Interpretationen sowie vereinzelte Fakten (z.B. aus Arte’s Themenabend: Why We Fight) sollen hierfür genügen.

:So I decided to concentrate on using Oni's own material and directly relevant interpretations, as well as isolated facts (e.g., "why we fight" and "Söldner - ein Beruf mit Zukunft", documentaries from Arte's Theme Night).
