Poluare severă în India. La New Delhi, cursurile trec online. Ce va agrava și mai mult calitatea aerului

In New Delhi, authorities have mandated online classes due to severe air pollution, urging residents to work from home and postpone gatherings. The air quality has rapidly deteriorated, exacerbated by the upcoming Diwali festival, which typically involves extensive firecracker use. The region faces annual pollution issues, worsened by winter conditions that trap emissions. New Delhi often ranks as the world's most polluted city, with a recent air quality index of 382, far exceeding safe levels. The Air Quality Management Commission has implemented restrictions and advised local governments to allow telecommuting for half of their workforce. Forecasts predict further deterioration in air quality due to unfavorable weather conditions, raising health concerns among residents.
