I’ve been interested by the pollution mechanic as a new-ish player (around a year or a year and a half) and instead of resetting as soon as I’d hit my population goal for this run, I decided to go a bit further and then see what it would take to realistically hit 0 pollution before resetting.

Currently, I have 29 factories and all energy is coming from reactors (15), solar farms (27), hydro plants (5), and satellites (4). Since I’m not running the smelters anymore and have been selling them off, it’s like reverting to an earlier part of the game when your only source of titanium is zebra trade.

I’m drawn in by how in order to prioritize healing the environment, you basically have to prioritize it in both a policy and industry.
