Remove The Black Clouds

I was thinking. If man were to really do something so bad as to darken the skies, what would be the possibility of removing it? Is it just a matter of time?

I guess it would all depend on how the skies were darkened in the first place. The process of darkening the sky was discussed in one of the Animatrix films but it was never said what was used to darken the sky. All we saw were planes streaking through the sky with a dark substance coming from the rear. I can't think of a chemical that would be as permanent as that. Hopefully, at least not in my lifetime, there will never be a need to scorch the sky because there is another life form on the planet that needs solar energy more than we do. The ozone problem is the closest one of that nature that we have today.

Considering the permanency of it we have to wonder if the humans were not 'thinking' of the aftermath and how they would survive or if they have a 'cure', but it died with them.

Hey that is a great point the ozone layer must have just vanished so nothing could grow. What about oxygen. That means on the surface there wasnt any right?

It is true that the lack of sustained light would cause a severe cut in oxygen but there are some subterranean plants that do produce oxygen. The process can also be synthesized using lamps so at the very least Zion would be able to sustain itself. A very interesting question though... Got me thinking,

I believe that in The Animatrix, during the commentary, it explains that the skies were darkened using some form of nano-technology.
