Air Pollution Map

Air Pollution is generated by some buildings, is effected by the wind, and can negatively impact Health and happiness when it blows across areas where your population works or lives. Over time Air pollution levels in a region can increase and produce a haze that hangs in the air.

  • Wind data map uses blue arrows to show the direction of the wind blowing over your city. Be sure to construct your dirty buildings at the edge of your city, in the direction of the arrows.

Although traffic in your city can cause small amounts of air pollution, these buildings are the major contributors:

  • Trees
  • Nature Parks
