The government has recently launched a 'real-time air quality index' program, which will provide up-to-the-minute information on the air quality across the country. The initiative, led by the Department of Environment, aims to inform the public about the health implications of varying pollution levels while fostering proactive measures to control and mitigate air pollution.
I would love to believe that I’m just having a severe reaction to dust, or that it’s all normal seasonal illness, but the evidence suggests otherwise.
Dhakaiites were greeted with clearer-than-usual weather today as the air quality in Dhaka has improved significantly following two days of rainfall in the last week. According to the U.S. Embassy air quality monitor, the AQI (Air Quality Index) at 12 PM today was at 57, the lowest it has been in the last month.
What exactly is the government doing to improve air quality?
It seems grossly inappropriate that in a country on its way to achieving middle-income status, there are still people dying from poverty.
Air quality in Bangladesh was the worst in the world last year and Dhaka was the 21st most polluted city, according to 2019 World Air Quality Report.
