Al fresco lunch in Delhi. The air today has a pleasant „unhealthy” AQI of just 123

The lede sentence of this story in today’s edition of The Hindu is insane, but I’m totally here for it #journalism

Today’s Delhi pollution news, meh 😷 🇮🇳

The air in Delhi today is the worst I remember it in two years here. You can’t spend more than a few minutes outdoors without gasping and feeling ill. 😷 ☠️

All good, then. Thanks, Hindustan Times!

Winter pollution in Delhi: laboured breathing, coughing, and (for some) headaches. It’s a collective action problem from hell for #India’s decentralised democracy and its neighbouring enemy state #Pakistan, which breathes the same foul air.
