Risk of damage to eyes, throat and lungs
There is no system in our body to stop these particles while breathing. In this case PM 2.5 reaches deep inside our lungs. PM2.5 is most harmful to children and the elderly. This increases eye, throat and lung problems. There is also coughing and shortness of breath.
What is Air Quality Index?
An Air Quality Index has been created to measure the problem of pollution. The index shows that the amount of 8 pollutants in the air, including PM-10, 2.5, PM10, PM2.5, sulfur dioxide (SO2), nitrogen dioxide (NO2) and carbon monoxide (CO), is determined by the World Health Organization (WHO). Under the standards or not.
The Air Quality Index (AQI) is ‘Better’ between 0-50, ‘Satisfactory’ between 51-100, ‘Normal’ between 101 and 200, ‘Poor’ between 201 and 300, ‘Between 301 and 400’ Considered ‘bad’ and between 401 and 500 ‘severe’.
