This is a fork of Dirty Launches by Blooha77 to make it not require space-age. NOiZE has a similar fork. This is a great mod that forces you to think about where you are not just where you are going. SE compatible - the number of slots used will increase or decrease the amount of pollution generated.
Pairs well with:
Treez which helps mitigate pollution you'll generate.
Pollution: Impactful Smog really showcases the pollution absorbing impact of trees
Pollution Smoke showcases the pollution absorbing impact of trees
Terrain Evolution 2 Pollution will degrade your planet.
Desirable Dirt Paths is another terrain modification mod.
Pollution Combinator to cut power to buildings to curb pollution to levels your forests can manage.
