Problems

Issue	Tips for 0.800
No Money	Build Banks, build Police around Banks. Be very careful with the crime generated.
Too Much Pollution	Wind blows smog to the right. Only build to the left of your pollution producers. Build overlapping Hazmats to clean up the smog cloud.
Too Much Litter	Build Dumps, quickly. Disable or bulldoze your resource extractors.
Too Much Crime	Crime is very serious. It will cause riots and end up with many people dying. Build Police so that every building is within the radius of a Police or Riot Police (Parks might work). It is the total police versus total crime that triggers riots. Build overlapping Riot Police to cover your high crime buildings (Banks, Stock Exchanges, International Banks, Air Cargo Bays, Linguistic Centers). Keep pollution and litter under control. If you have any buildings outside of police protection, they will generate massive amounts of crime. Disable or bulldoze crime causes if necessary to keep things under control.
Too Much Disease	You may die. Build Hospitals and Trauma centers to cure individuals. Control + Click on the city center to open the disease menu. Quarantines, Genetic Scanning, and Toxic Screens only work on the appropriate type of disease. Try researching to Epidemiology and building the Disease Center.
Too Much Planetary Hatred	Build Shrines.
No Meals	You need Farms, Water, and Restaurants.
No Crops	Build Farms.
No Restaurants	Build Restaurants.
