Recycling Campaign

[Falcon02]

POLLUTION IS RAMPANT!!!!

We need Recycling plants in all major polluting cities.

"A polluted square is a wasted square"

I agree with the general. Mass transit systems should also be installed.

 

[Chieftess]

And our valuble grasslands are starting to turn into plains, and even desert!

 

[Zarn]

It's true and we need to fight it. Recycling Centers and transit sytems are needed. Governers pay heed to this.

 

[GenMarshall]

I aggree with Falcon02 on this idea. We should control this rampid pollution

 

[Falcon02]

I suggest building Pollution reducing improvements immediately (unless the current item is too important, then it would go next in queue) in cities with 5 or more Pollution.

 

[Octavian X]

Or, we should make all metros build mass transit systems, and all cities w/factories have recycling centers.

 

[Falcon02]

interesting Idea Octavian, but a Factory doesn't always make a city a bad polluter, neither does population. I've seen Metros without Mass Transit, with only 2-3 pollution before, IIRC. I think polluting improvements kinda amplify the pop effects, unless I'm mistaken.

 

[Octavian X]

Well, at least the larger metros. Philidelphia comes to mind. I'm not sure if it has a mass transit system.

 

[donsig]

It does my heart good to see our valiant General has begun the war on pollution!

 

[Eklektikos]

Yes, we should construct metros in the metros

 

[Falcon02]

In real life, I'm no tree hugger, but I believe every practical way of reducing pollution should be persued by the large masses.

But, in Civilization I hate it with a passion, cause not only does it have long term effects of global warming, but it makes squares unusable till cleaned up and wastes workers on cleanup operations.

EDIT: please don't turn this into a political argument.

I understand, Falcon. I'm not a tree hugger, either. In this game, I do hate the pollution, so we are actually on the same page.

I've compiled a list of cities that have pollution, from light to problematic. Once it gets past 10, it gets harder to count the pollution.

Pollution
light = 1-4
minimal = 5-7
heavy = 8-11
widespread = (estimated) 12-20
Problematic = (estimated) 20+

Memphis (widespread - near problematic)
Salamanca (widespread)
San Fransisco (widespread)
Byblos (widespread)
St. Regis (widespread)
Abydos (widespread)
Boston (heavy)
Cumae (heavy)
Mokra (minimal)
Eyr (minimal)
Heliopolis (minimal)
Allegheny (minimal)
Shailonegha (minimal)
Elephantine (minimal)
Philadelphia (minimal)
Khatovar (minimal)
Alexandria (minimal)
Cyrus (minimal)
Malinalco (minimal)
Xinjiang (minimal)
Herakleia (minimal)
Port Gisnod (minimal)
Asyut (minimal)
Callisto (minimal)
NFH (minimal)
El-Amarna (minimal)
Miami (minimal)
Fox Nest (light)
Valhall (light)
Thebes (light)
Sparta (light)
New York (light)
Oil Springs (light)
PDX (light)
Delphi (light)
Atlanta (light)
Seattle (light)
Civantoria (light)
Hangchow (light)
Pherris (light)
CSIM (light)
Seantoria (light)
Chie (light)
Chondote (light)

I say all Yellow, Orange, and Red Cities should build anti Pollution buildings

 

[Stuck_as_a_Mac]

terriffic. im stuck with a top polluter.
any way, we have GOT to curb all of this
