Add a Filters upgrade for Smoke Stacks, or a separated building for Filtered Smoke Stacks. It should recude the pollution, but suffer a reduced productivity and an increased manteinance cost.
I've no data to suggest a % pollution reduction by filters and so for productivity, but I find interesting the possibility to reduce the pollution, it could lead to a new production chain to construct filters, even a new mainteinance resource and building dedicated to filters.
Filters for Smoke Stacks
New content
Environment & Pollution
I suggest to the developers that green plantings (trees, bushes...) reduce pollution.
for those saying "we have the exhaust scrubber" that thing is only useful during and after late mid game
a small filtered smoke stack that produces sulfur at a 4 exhaust to 1 sulfur ratio but needing a cheap filter would be nice even if it only cuts the pollution effect by 20-50%
still worse than full exhaust scrubber but simpler and unlocked in the early mid game
