Reduce population: less buildings = more plants, less working people = less industries and less cars.
It's not a viable solution but it would be the most effective.
Another solution: forbidding imports of products coming from industries not conforming to internal exhaust laws. India and China pollute the most and export everywhere, thus such a policy would force them to adequate.

I would add: switch off Tour Eiffel lights every night (they did it as a protest for 5 minutes!), forbid new year's fires (they pollute like hours of city traffic), forbid garden lights at night, mandate planting a tree every 100 square meters of cement built, act to stop deforestation in Brasil, mandate companies to switch off intranet servers during off-work hours. These are all wastes that can be avoided now.

there's nothing wrong with development and technology but there's a need to strike a balance with economic and ecological development.

It entails a lot of hardwork and sacrifice from each one of us to alleviate pollution. People have been responding on the call for sanitation and proper waste disposal but it seems that the government failed to play its significant role on the issue. Big factories expecially in highly industrialized countries like China and US must heed the signs of environmental degradation. But this seemed to be happening in a slower pace or nothing has been done at all because their governments failed to address the issue properly. With restrictions and constant monitoring on the part of the government, and developing a sense of social and ecological responsibility on the side of businessmen, the problems on pollution may not be eradicated but can at least be mitigated.
