Pollution of the Realms

Machines and combustion of fuels release carbon and sulfur dust particles. Pollutants rise into the atmosphere, collect into cloud formations and drift along simulated air currents, so contamination moves across the map rather than staying in one place. Visible emission blocks and dust layers show where the air is thick, and high density reduces visibility for players.

Over time pollution can damage trees, crops, grass, farmland and living entities, and acid rain carries contamination into water. Soil pollution, oil spills, dust from grinding and crushing machinery and explosive underground gas pockets add further sources. Venting devices release trapped gas, and Advanced Chimneys with filtration systems reduce emitted dust, so players can manage the effects without a single fixed solution.

The mod needs ForgeEndertech on every loader. Pollution Plus requires Pollution of the Realms in turn. Files are published for Fabric, Forge and NeoForge, with the latest builds for 26.3, and the environment is client and server, so the server and every player need the mod.
