Only up to a point. Once the pollution starts up your everything crashes since heavy pollution cuts out all power sources other than solar. Since pollution also effects disease resistance, you wind up catching every disease you can so the death spirals start up again. Since volcanoes require workers and power both, they stop working.

The Zenith can take it the farthest, but even they can't reach the end.

I've never let pollution get that out of hand - it kills everything except solar? Shouldn't that be the other way around? I'd think that heavy particulate matter would block out the sun (but not other pollutants.)

Either pollution or temperature, one of the two. Not sure I have the save game anymore to check.
