Ozone Pollution

Industries that are most polluting get one star and five stars are awarded to those who are least polluting as per the regulators' pollution standards.

Europe's heatwave is generating very high levels of harmful ozone pollution, the region's atmospheric monitoring service warned Tuesday, adding that large areas of western Europe also face "extreme" danger of wildfires.

The summer of 2022 -- one of the hottest in history -- has witnessed widespread ozone exceedance, making the air of Delhi-NCR more toxic, according to an analysis conducted by the Centre for Science and Environment (CSE).

As pollution continues to destroy our ozone layer, being in the sun becomes more and more dangerous. In this article, we discuss how.

The polluted air that we inhale comprises ozone, nitrogen dioxide, particulate matter, diesel exhaust particles etc., which are harmful for our lungs.

Delhi air quality plunged to the "very poor" category again because of high humidity due to light rain. Examples of secondary particles include sulphates, nitrates, ozone and organic aerosols.

Delhi and its neighbouring cities -- Faridabad and Gurgaon -- have witnessed "substantial ozone build-up" from February to May, a green body today claimed, cautioning that it was early signs of a "dangerous trend".

Emissions of a banned, ozone-depleting chemical are on the rise, a group of scientists reported Wednesday, suggesting someone may be secretly manufacturing the pollutant in violation of an international accord.

China's war on pollution is at risk of reaching a "stalemate", with poor weather conditions undermining the country's efforts to reduce smog, an environment ministry spokesman said on Thursday.

Don't blame the sun, it pollution which is harming your skin. Here's a word from our expert on how you can protect your skin against damage.

Change in climate leads to increased amounts of ground - level ozone and fine particle that further impacts human health. Although fine particles and ground level ozone occur naturally, human beings have increased them considerably.These fine particles will remain in the air for a long time when there is less rain. When it does not rain the harmful...

Deadly ozone has raised its ugly head in Delhi and NCR and without a time bound implementation strategy and preventive action this can deepen into a serious public health crisis.

The hole in the ozone layer over the Antarctic has begun to shrink, signalling good news for the environment decades after an international accord to phase out certain pollutants, researchers said Thursday.

Mexico City authorities have lifted a smog alert one day after ozone levels rose above 150 per cent of acceptable limits.

Mexican authorities have issued a new smog alert for the capital after ozone levels rose above 150 per cent of acceptable limits.
