Pollution levels are dangerous in BangkokThe amount of particulate matter in the air was at health hazardous levels throughout Bangkok on Friday morning, with the exception of Chom Thong district. Nong Khaem district was worst affected, the Bangkok Metropolitan Administration said. Online reports from the BMA showed hazardous levels of particulate matter in most locations where it measures air quality. In addition to Nong Khaem, serious levels were detected in Prawet and Bangkok Yai districts. The Pollution Control Department attributed the pollution level to stagnant weather which trapped emissions from vehicles.
