North India continues to face severe #AirPollution. Reducing #IndoorAirPollution exposure should remain the first and most effective protection. Watch my views with @bbcnewspunjabi on the role of #AirPurifiers & how to safeguard your #health. 🔗 https://t.co/NoqpXjQ6Bx

VIDEO | Chandigarh: Dr. Ravindra Khaiwal, Professor of Environmental Health at PGIMER, highlights that 87% of recent farm fires are reported in Pakistan's Punjab, with only 13% in India, showing a major shift in stubble burning trends. (Full video available on PTI Videos –

Thanks, @mohitk1 & @thetribunechd, for highlighting the concern that ‘Air pollution knows no borders🌏’ Our neighbors can learn from Haryana & Punjab, where sustained efforts & farmer-centric measures are helping curb stubble burning 🌾🔥. #AirQuality #CleanAir #StubbleBurning

Stubble burning has started in the Indo-Gangetic Plains. The PU–PGI team is back with reporting fire count statistics. Satellite data shows fire counts in Punjab & Haryana: 10 (23 Sep) → 20 (24) → 34 (25) → 17 (26) → 8 (27) → 16 (28) → 5 (29). Stay tuned for updates. 🌾🔥

Happy to organize Roundtable on Sustainable & Climate Smart Agriculture @OfficialPU, in collaboration with the @ResearchCcg . 40+ experts from academia, govt, NGOs, FPOs etc joined. Thanks to Mr. Amandeep Grewal @UKinChandigarh , @KhaiwalPGI,

Join us for a talk by Dr @ahalawat_aa, TU Delft 🇳🇱 He will discuss how drone-driven technologies advance urban management, enabling high-resolution air pollution monitoring & supporting #ClimateResilience planning for healthier, sustainable cities. #ClimateAction Tnx @FCDOGovUK

India needs a multifaceted approach to climate resilience, including updated heat action plans, carbon-neutral policies, & climate-resistant infrastructure. Our study navigates the challenges of a warmer climate in India. @ResearchCcg @NDMAIndia @PMOIndia @ResearchCcg

Maha Shivratri is a celebration connecting spirituality with environmental conservation. Mantra ‘Om Namah Sivāya’ symbolizes: Om (soul), Na (earth), Mah (water), Śi (fire), Vā (water), Ya (sky), aligning soul with Earth’s cycles of Life & Renewal. @moefcc @PMOIndia @sumanmorpu

India is dedicated to wetland conservation with 80+ Ramsar sites, the highest in Asia. Initiatives like AMRIT Dharohar & Wetlands (Conservation & Management) Rules, 2017, strengthen ecosystem protection, biodiversity, & climate resilience. #Wetlands @sumanmorpu @moefcc @PMOIndia

2024 marks a historic & alarming milestone: crossing 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels for the first time. @CopernicusEU confirms human-driven climate change as the main culprit. This is more than a warning, it’s a call to action. Act now, before it’s too late! #GlobalWarming

Our @Nature_NPJ study advances air quality monitoring with machine learning, validating sensor data against Federal Reference & Equivalent Methods. This approach bridges precision gaps, paving the way for reliable air quality solutions. @sumanmorpu 👉 https://t.co/MNqUxijTFz

Encroachment not just occurring outside PU boundary but within PU Sec 25 campus also right in front of UIET. Alarmingly, new (3rd majar) encroachment is slowly emerging Who is permitting these public spaces to be encroached?@pu_officials @MCChandigarh, please take action.

This is for DC @nishantyadavIAS and MC Commissioner Mr Amit Kumar @MCChandigarh to ensure such law breakers shall get their place..

Glad to be part of CCG programme as Coordinator. The network will focus on critical areas such as climate-compatible sustainable cities, green energy, and sustainable agriculture

‘Delhi Smog fix must be as unique as the problem’ https://t.co/zcofGRNYg3 A strategic focus on reducing emissions through clean energy, sustainable agriculture, & innovative transportation is essential for lasting impact. @moefcc @CAQM_Official #AirQuality #SustainableSolutions

Delhi’s air quality is like an elephant in the room but everyone just blames its tail. Let’s stop airbrushing the bigger picture & tackle all the pollution sources #DelhiAir #PollutionPuzzles @sumanmorpu @ANI @PTI_News @ANI @CBC_Chandigarh @NITIAayog @CAQM_Official @MoHFW_INDIA

Why is there a discrepancy between estimated fire counts (AMI-GK2A) & NASA Aqua/NASA/NOAA Suomi-NPP fire counts during the overpass window around 1:00- 2:00 PM IST❓ This mismatch raises questions about the claim of evening fire events❓ @AkashBi49950783 @revviewer2 @sumanmorpu

Highest Stubble Fire Observed today (2024-11-18)🔥 Punjab: 888 fires Top districts: Sri Muktsar Sahib (203), Firozpur (108), Moga (91), Bathinda (89). Haryana: 18 fires Top districts: Fatehabad (8), Sirsa (7). Total (Punjab + Haryana): 906 fires. #AirPollution #StubbleBurning

चंडीगढ़ में AQI 265 तक पहुंच गया है, जो स्वास्थ्य के लिए हानिकारक है। दिवाली के दौरान पटाखों से वायु प्रदूषण और बढ़ सकता है। सभी नागरिकों से अनुरोध है कि हवा की गुणवत्ता को ध्यान में रखते हुए सुरक्षित विकल्प अपनाएं। धन्यवाद, @AU_CDGNews इस कवरेज के लिए! #AirQuality @sumanmorpu
