Earth

A card’s ability only triggers when its specific activation condition is met; when several abilities trigger, resolve them in the tableau activation order shown in the placement/activation rules (see pages 5–6 and the activation example on page 12).

Composting immediately gives Soil tokens and places Compost and Sprout markers as specified by the card/action; Sprouts are converted into Soil later when you perform a Watering action that converts them (see page 7).

Planting and Grow actions follow the draw and placement steps listed in the action rules: Planting includes the drawing/drafting steps for cards, while the Grow action is when you place Growth/Canopy tokens according to the card text and grow rules (see pages 5–6 and the detailed drawing/placement rules on page 8).

Fauna cards are two-sided scoring objectives with conditions you must meet to claim Leaf tokens; you claim Leaf tokens when you satisfy the Fauna requirements during play and then score them according to the Fauna scoring rules at scoring time (see page 9).

Island and Climate cards provide resources/icons and may have abilities, but those abilities only trigger under their stated activation conditions and follow the normal activation rules for cards (see page 10 for setup, icons, and activation details).

The game ends when the end-game trigger listed in the rules occurs; once triggered, resolve final scoring in the order given on page 14 (including any final card/leaf scoring) and apply the tiebreaker rules explained there, with an end-game example on page 13.
