Where do people keep seeing "industrial pollution" in very basic, not material intensive light industry?

There are very few things in the light industry today making pollution. PCB etchants, dyes, solvents — all being actively reclaimed for decades.

Things like Abattoirs, Textiles, and Paper Making are all considered light industry. If you've ever driven by one of these you may understand industrial pollution.

I would be very surprised if US textile mills don't reclaim their dyes when even Bangladeshi ones do.

Trucks burn diesel and pump exhaust into the air.

Trucks burning diesel stand in no rank whatsoever with steel mills, or concrete kilns.
