The Biome describes the habitable and uninhabitable space and overall health of Kewa. The Peeps' arrival, terraforming, and especially Pollution have significant effects on the Biome and therefore Kewa's health and happiness.
Fertility
The health of the Biome is represented best by the fertility of the space. The more fertile tiles Kewa has, the healthier they are, and the more the Peeps can do with the space, for example with Agriculture Buildings.
Conditions
Tiles can be any combination of the following conditions (as seen on their info card under Condition):
- Watered or Dry
- Dirt or Bare
- Breathable or not
If a tile is both Watered and Dirt, it automatically becomes Fertile. Ideal tile conditions are "Fertile and Breathable," which is where Forests can grow trees and Peeps can live and grow Resources.
Through terraforming, Peeps can convert bare ground into dirt through composting, dry ground into watered ground through channeling water, and not breathable areas into breathable by planting or watering forests.
Kewa's health and happiness increases by increasing the total amount of fertile ground.

Atmosphere
Atmosphere comes from watered Forests. The most impactful way for Peeps to expand their livable space is by digging channels for water to flow into new places, thereby reviving the dead Forest in those areas. Second, Peeps can plant new Forest near the edge of the habitable zone. Both are accomplished through Terraforming.
-
Once terraformed, the new river will add atmosphere to the southeast.
