A Group publication put Air Pollution in Ahmedabad, andGujaratin general, under scrutiny and indicated that the city’s air pollution levels from dust particles are among the highest. Taking International Institute for Applied Systems Analysis (IIASA), Greenhouse Gas and Air Pollution Interactions and Synergies (GAINS), data as the base, the study said that Ahmedabad’s air pollution composition is different from that of other major cities.
The data in a recent World Bank Group publication ‘Striving for Clean Air: Air Pollution and Public Health in South Asia’ pointed out that of every cubic metre of Ahmedabad’s air, there were about 20 micrograms of dust particles.
