This problem is based on the tort of nuisance.
It is apparent that the fumes emitted by A's factory amounts to public nuisance
which is actionable as a crime and as a tort.
My advise to A's neighbours is to instigate the arrest of A for prosecution by
the state for the public nuisance.
In addition, if any of A's neighbour is suffering particular or specific loss from
the nuisance such a person has a personal action against A for the loss for example if
one of A's neighbours is a fish trader such a person can sue A for an injunction.
