Sources
Although traffic in your city can cause small amounts of air pollution, these buildings are the major contributors:
- Industrial buildings
- Coal Power Plants (this can be minimized with upgraded attachments)
- Oil Power Plants (this can be minimized with upgraded attachments)
- Garbage Dumps with the Garbage Incinerator attachment
Clean Up
As mentioned air pollution blows with the wind, so if you remove the source buildings most of it will go away. However there are ways to remove it faster or combat it if you cannot remove the source buildings.
