Air Pollution in India: Impact on Lives and Livelihoods
Air pollution in India, particularly in the capital city of Delhi, is a severe problem that affects millions of people every year. During the winter season, pollution levels rise due to various factors such as crop stubble burning and firecrackers. Many residents have adapted to the pollution and do not wear masks, despite the negative health effects. People suffer from breathing problems and eye irritation, but feel helpless as they need to work and earn a living. The government has implemented measures like the graded response plan to restrict activities, but long-term solutions are needed.
