Toxic Gas in Summer: The increase in ozone gas in the current summer season is causing great damage to the atmosphere, threatening the people living in many cities.
Ozone Gas Risk: For the last several decades, we are facing the effects of global warming, but now it has reached a dangerous level. According to the latest report of 'Center for Science and Environment' ie CSE, the problem is increasing due to the spread of toxic ozone in this summer season.
The danger of these diseases from ozone gas
According to this report, ozone falls in the category of a very toxic gas that can cause asthma and respiratory diseases in people. On an average, 16 stations in Delhi-NCR were higher than the daily norm in March-April and this is an increase of 33% over the previous year.
Many records broken in the summer this year
The summer of 2022 has broken many records this year, and has also created a new history in terms of heat. Along with the rising heat, this year has also seen a massive increase in ozone, which is making Delhi's air more toxic. In terms of increase in ozone gas, the capital Delhi ranks among the most polluted cities in India, while the country's financial capital Mumbai is at number two. In this list Kolkata comes third, Hyderabad fourth, Chennai fifth and Bangalore sixth.
Things have become dangerous
CSE's Research and Advocacy Executive Director Anumita Roy Chowdhury says that even if we bring control in the amount of pollution spreading in the air, still we can not get rid of the ozone growth at the ground level. Despite getting many alerts, this issue of ozone pollution is not being given importance and if steps are not taken on this problem in time, then it will become a big problem for the health of the people.
Loss of life due to pollution
According to the State of Global Air Report in the year 2020, not only pollution has increased due to ozone in India, but many people have also lost their lives. Usually the effect of ozone is less at night after sunset, but in Delhi NCR, the effect of ozone is relatively high even at night. The effect of ozone has been observed at night in Mundka in Delhi, Loni and Vasundhara in Ghaziabad and Knowledge Park 3 in Greater Noida.
immediate action needed
There is a need for immediate action on the rapidly increasing ozone gas in India. It has become very important to control the pollution caused by industrial factories, vehicular fumes. Along with this, there is a need to take necessary steps regarding this issue in the national level running program against pollution.
