This is not the kind of beginning to the new year I was expecting. For the new year - can we please call out pollution sources when we see one near us? All new year new me resolutions are inconsequential without clean air!!!.
Open burning of waste in the heart of a residential north Kolkata locality. What’s amusing is the presence of a police station here. @kmc_kolkata how do we clamp this down?

The colour of the sky could be misleading. Blue skies don't mean clean air. Here's something we are doing to make air pollution more visible. Send in pictures of the sky from where you live and we'll tell you what it means for your life expectancy!.@waqsouthasia @CLEANAirAfrica.
The air outside your window could be cutting years off your life. Submit a photo of what your sky looks like, and we will map its #pollution levels to its impact on life expectancy:

Why do air quality standards (AQS) matter? They guide policy on air pollution and help benchmark progress in achieving clean air. Here is an opportunity for #COP29 presidency #Azerbaijan to strengthen air quality action by setting an ambitious AQS ! @COP29_AZ @Jane_Burston.

This is largest crisis India faces today. And while people may say that people are aware about air pollution now - I vehemently disagree. On day like this, there are hardly any people wearing masks. This is beyond awareness now, this is about our life!
