Remember when I complained about the staggering numbers of people setting off fireworks in the last 2 weeks?
Well, this:
On #NYE, Phoenix experienced the HIGHEST smoke levels since reliable records began in 2010.
As the clock struck midnight, New Year's Day smoke levels remained the 3rd highest since records began in 2011. #AirQuality#Pollution#Phoenix#Arizona

Outdoor Particulate Matter (#PM) Air Quality Monitoring
This thread explores the new Model X #outdoor PM air quality monitor made by #Canadian@IndianaTux at co2.click, what it does, costs, and examples showing the information it provides. #AQ#AirQuality 🧵1/
"The report showed that improvements in #AirQuality between 2019 and 2022 from lowering motor vehicle pollution – even before the expansion of the #ULEZ throughout the capital since August – rivalled the potential savings from entirely cleaning up #London’s aviation or industrial and commercial heat and power generation."
Maybe, I've got too many #AirQuality sensors. #seeedstudio HM3301 vs. PMS5003. Both sensors working perfect, but the developers have to do their homeworks. The #arduino libraries needs to be updated. My @arduino UNO R4 WiFi wants to fly through the IoT☁️. #anerrormessageappear😫
Merry Christmas! But, maybe don’t burn that Yule log when there’s an inversion layer trapping in pollution?
The air quality in Nor Cal in general is a bit low from numerous factors today, but the way the worst readings are scattered suggest there are a lot of people celebrating the holiday by burning wood.
Ugh for all of us who have asthma and other breathing issues. I got caught off guard with a direct stream of wood smoke yesterday while I was running and it took me about 12 hours to stop coughing.
How a construction boom led to toxic air in Mumbai
Government incentives have led to a spike in construction projects in the city. Residents are suffering from the resultant increase in pollution levels.
Smog Isn’t Just About Farmers – We Breathe the Soot of Our Own Ecological Sins
It’s not only our lungs but perhaps our brains that have become fogged. We have failed to see that historically, stubble burning contributes only 6% to the pollution, yet the public is quick to make the farmers the scapegoats, and not the policymakers.
Delhi enveloped in a haze as air pollution levels peak to emergency levels
According to the CPCB, the AQI in the Lodhi Road area was recorded at 438, in Jahangirpuri at 491, in the RK Puram area and in IGI Airport (T3) at 486 and 473 respectively.
Schools were shut and non-essential construction was banned around #Delhi as the #AirQuality index in the city almost hit 500 – the highest the measurement will go and 100 times the limit deemed to be healthy by the #WorldHealthOrganization.
