The current state of Karachi’s air quality presents a worrisome trend, contradicting expectations for improvement in recent years, according to reports from IQAir. Despite efforts to address pollution levels, the situation has deteriorated.
The Air Quality Index (AQI) reading for Karachi falls within the unhealthy range, a cause for concern. Readings between 151-200 are deemed unhealthy, and those between 201-300 pose even greater risks to health. This underscores potential threats to the well-being of Karachi’s residents.
Despite these challenges, Karachi is anticipated to experience dry and cold weather, with a chilly breeze during the night. The morning temperature stands at 18 degrees Celsius, while the maximum temperature is expected to range between 28 to 30 degrees Celsius.
This weather forecast adds complexity to the existing air quality problem, potentially exacerbating environmental conditions in the city. Addressing and mitigating pollution levels in Karachi is imperative to safeguard the health and well-being of its residents.
