Clicking on it will change game speed (the passage of game turns described above) to Fast, clicking it again changes speed to Slow, and another click returns it to Medium. If you're impatient for your timber to be cut or your tourists to arrive, you might enjoy the Fast setting. If you're a person that likes the dripping of the rainforest waters to lazily trickle down those broad leaves, Slow might be just about your speed. Experiment and see.

Scenario Recap
The clearing and burning of rainforest for farm and cattle grazing (or any other activity) releases vast amounts of carbon dioxide, methane and nitrous oxide -- all potent greenhouse gases. It is estimated that tropical deforestation annually contributes 23-30% of all carbon dioxide, the gas believed to play a large part in global warming.
The Scenario Recap Button displays (by way of the SimFax machine) the Same island information Seen by Using the Info button on selected islands in the Scenario Selection Map. The faxed message will also tell you the current game date, which can be critical for those scenarios that are time-dependent.

Using solar energy, plants manufacture simple sugars from carbon dioxide in the atmosphere and from water by the chemical process of photosynthesis. These sugars are the building-blocks of molecules which make up plants' cell walls and woody substance. Furthermore, they can be broken down as needed to provide energy and atoms for use in the complex biochemistry of life. [. . . ]
