That’s the perfect balance to chase – light that grows with us, not just burns away. If we seed the perimeter with slow‑glow vines that feed on the same carbon they emit, we keep the air clean and the shadows soft. The trick is timing the bloom with the ops schedule so the plants light up when you need them and fade as the mission winds down. It’s a tiny ripple in the ecosystem, but if we plant in pockets and let them decay naturally, the cycle stays closed. Keep the light a gentle guide, not a blinding spotlight, and the night will feel both safe and alive.
