Delhi And Lahore Face Alarming Air Pollution Crisis Authorities implement emergency measures as air quality deteriorates and school closures riseAir pollution crises have become increasingly common across major cities worldwide, but few have faced the dual challenges present in Delhi and Lahore. The air quality levels have seen alarming spikes recently, causing citizens to steer clear of outdoor activities and prompting officials to take drastic measures to combat the pollution. Urban centers like Delhi, which has long been known for its pollution challenges, are now reporting worsening air quality readings. The acknowledgment of air pollution as not merely one city’s problem, but rather a shared regional issue could be the first step toward ensuring cleaner air for all. Initiatives emphasizing clean energy, sustainable practices, and even air quality awareness could bring about healthier cities as long-forgotten air quality control methods are again brought to the forefront.
