Diwali Air Pollution Soars Across Andhra Pradesh, a Public Health Crisis

New Indian Express  

Air pollution levels across Andhra Pradesh have surged following Diwali festivities, with cities like Amaravati, Anantapur, Chittoor, Rajamahendravaram, Tirupati, Vijayawada, and Visakhapatnam recording high AQI readings. Data from last year indicates higher pollution levels in places like Chittoor and Visakhapatnam, with the former recording a peak AQI of 350, compared to 246 in Visakhapatnam. An environmental professor attributes the increase to factors such as industrial emissions, high population density, and increased vehicle usage in Visakhapatnam. Temperature inversions create a 'blanket effect,' trapping pollutants near the ground and preventing their dispersal, contributing to the pollution levels.
