Dhaka’s air quality moderate
City Desk :
Dhaka’s air is no longer world’s most polluted.
With an air quality index (AQI) score of 93 at 9:11 am, Dhaka on Saturday ranked 15th on the list of cities worldwide with the worst air quality.
An AQI between 50 and 100 is considered ‘moderate’ with an acceptable air quality. However, there may be a moderate health concern for a very small number of people who are unusually sensitive to air pollution.
Qatar’s Doha, the United Arab Emirates’ Dubai and Pakistan’s Lahore occupied the first three spots on the list, with AQI scores of 181, 173 and 129, respectively, reports UNB.
