Rising Air Pollution in India Amid Seasonal Changes and G20 Energy Concerns
Recent reports highlight rising air pollution in Indian cities like Delhi and Pune, driven by increased particulate matter (PM2.5 and PM10), higher temperatures, reduced rainfall, and weaker winds. Experts link these trends to seasonal factors and a strong El Niño event expected to worsen air quality. Meanwhile, at the G20 Foreign Ministers' meeting, India's External Affairs Minister Jaishankar raised concerns about energy market disruptions due to geopolitical conflicts and sanctions, emphasizing challenges for low-income countries and India's energy security.
