98% of urban areas in low-and center pay nations with more than 1,00,000 tenants don’t meet WHO air quality rules; states the most recent report.

The rankings depend on ground estimations of yearly mean groupings of particulate matter (PM 10 and PM 2.5). Than PM 10, air contamination of PM 2.5 is connected with more genuine health implications. PM 2.5 better particulate matter causes more noteworthy harm to the respiratory framework than coarser PM 10. The essential source of data incorporates official reporting from nations to WHO, and authority national and sub-national reports and sites containing estimations of PM10 or PM2.5.

As urban air quality decays, the danger of stroke, coronary illness, lung malignancy, and constant and intense respiratory ailments including asthma, increments for the general population who live in them.

Says Dr Flavia Bustreo, WHO Assistant-Director General, Family, Women and Children’s Health, “Air pollution is a major cause of disease and death. It is good news that more cities are stepping up to monitor air quality, so when they take actions to improve it they have a benchmark. When dirty air blankets our cities the most vulnerable urban populations—the youngest, oldest and poorest—are the most impacted.”

Wish somebody in the organization pays heed so we have a solid city alongside the smart city. May be its time for “odd-even” vehicles in Udaipur as well! A more tight control on close-by industrial units may likewise be required!
