''"Currently, pollution reduction for Ground Pollution is based on how many solid blocks are above it, every 5 solid blocks reduces pollution by 50%. For example, with 10 solid blocks above the reduction would be 75%, with 15 it would be 87.5% and so on."'' - Version 0.9.2 | ''"Currently, pollution reduction for Ground Pollution is based on how many solid blocks are above it, every 5 solid blocks reduces pollution by 50%.
