- Denwa is the phone who tells Agent 8 how to navigate the Underground - Denwa gives you the NAMACO Terminal and the NAMACO Card that are required to use the Deep Sea Metro - when you're in a train car, the NAMACO Terminal allows you to display the Deep Sea Metro map - from that map, you can select a station and head there using the subway network - there's a ticket gate in each station, and it leads to the mysterious underground facility - using NAMACO Points, which are stored on the card, you can tackle various challenges - if you manage to clear one, you get some points as rewards - the amount of points you get depends on the weapon use

So to address the first concern, four families worked with the World Wildlife Fund to create polar - bear resistant food storage containers that can be stored above ground, rather than underground where traditional ice cellars - some more than 100 years old and upwards of 12 feet deep - are beginning to melt and fill with water.

Their impact on the land restores a healthy soil microbiome, increases the density of plants that cover the land surface, and — when incorporating perennial and native forages or trees — are able to store even more carbon deep underground, increasing its long - term stability.
