Polution is important, but not the main reason sunsets are orange/red.
It's about how how light works. At dawn and dusk the light has to travel trough a much thicker layer of lower atmosphere, because of the tangent angle. White light is made of different spectrums of light of different wave lenght. More red light is scatered toward you in lowe athmosphere than blue or green light.
That's where the red comes from. Anyway, I was talking about the excessive glare in the curent version of the game.
