Every year, the residents of Delhi as well as surrounding areas tend to experience hazardous levels of air pollution at the beginning of Winter. Smoke from stubble burning in the adjoining farmland areas of the states of Haryana and Punjab, as well as fumes from both vehicles and industry, enshroud the city as lower temperatures and slower moving winds trap pollutants in the air.
Recently, it has been found that, Mumbai's AQI has been fluctuating between "extremely poor" to "poor" on the pollution scale.
Simple activities such as ditching the single use plastics, planting a sapling and caring towards its growth switching to ecofriendly alternatives, can be initial self-do steps in making the planet a better as well as healthier place to breathe in.
