Delhi higher floor less smog.

The pollution national capital still has rescue you just have to do your part. Low visibility has resulted in accidents across the city notably a 24 vehicle pile up on the yamuna expressway. I ve never rigorously tested this question maybe i ll do it soon but i can answer this if we turn it into a smaller questi. The city already has new nicknames such as gas chamber masked capital and smog choked capital.

But at night air is more settled the average is around 50 100 meters. Meanwhile jokes cartoons and memes on delhi s smog are going on all over social media. At about 3 1 meters per floor people on the 20 th floor are about 62 meters high. The burning of post harvest paddy stubble in the agricultural fields of haryana and punjab is often cited as a major cause of this unhealthy smog.

But don t lose hope folks. Smog in delhi is an ongoing severe air pollution event in new delhi and adjoining areas in the national capital territory of india. Delhi s pollution levels worse than the great london smog of 1952. Higher floors may breathe easier at night.
