Can't stop myself from picturing Hitler bawling over some random bottle cap factory in Chelyabinsk.

Yeah that's a huge contributor. Agriculture in Punjab specifically is very inefficient and held back by ancient agriculture practices.

Basically declare war on Russia

Eh mate, why are those Ruskies not following all our whims innit?

Didn't even see the sun today 💀.

All that to say, how tf you still alive?

I'm kind of dying because the pollution has made my bronchitis go crazy and I legit have trouble breathing.

You don't really understand the ignorance of Indians and the way the Indian government rules us.

Pollution is not really seen as a bad thing but is seen as an inconvenience at best if not something to be proud of. Last month we had the festival called Diwali which involves using firecrackers and fireworks. Hundreds of millions of people lit fireworks at that time causing immeasurable air pollution just in the name of religion and culture. The air quality has been shit since then and people still use fireworks and firecrackers because "culture".

China and America don't see pollution in that way. For China it was a huge problem brought by unregulated industrial output and not something they see as a part of their identity.

There is also the lack of good education in India unlike China. People don't really understand the harmful effects of air pollution.

I can go on more but you should get the gist of it.

Yes I'm a Proof of Concept

Way too expensive for me honestly. Plus the air purifier lobby has pretty much blocked easy access to other filter types like MERV13 which are a far cheaper alternative to HEPA and can be used for cheap DIY setups.

Zero regulations. No oversight on industrial pollution, construction related pollution and so on.

And farmers in the Punjab area specifically burn their crop stubble around this time and all that raw pollution is carried to Delhi by the winds but leaves slowly due to the terrain.

On the plus side, air this bad tends to produce popular backlash that states can't easily ignore.

This is India not China or the US. Most people don't give a shit. The government doesn't give a shit either. Plus the small minority that gives a shit will be labeled as terrorists if they protest against the current Hindutva Fascist government hence ruining their lives as they rot in Jail for decades without trial.

Kerala is run by a Communist Party and they're the most literate state in India. Plus communal harmony is also the best in Kerala.

Probably similar until made glazing his entire personality.

Have to blow away the smog with my hands first.
