Anyone knows what the major source of pollution in Indian cities is? My guess would be automobile but I'd like it to be confirmed or denied.
- newusertoday 8y agoMy guess is manufacturing plants and burning of farm fields. Reason is i am not seeing other big cities like shanghai/Bombay etc. which would have comparable number of automobiles but smaller cities which are known to have big factories.
- Reason077 8y agoIn many cities, cars contribute relatively less pollution compared to factories and power plants, but because it’s localised along city streets where people live and work, it can be just as dangerous.
- Reason077 8y agoThere are multiple sources: Automobiles (including highly polluting two-stroke rickshaws and motorbikes), coal-fired power plants, industrial emissions, domestic cooking fires, and agricultural burn-offs.
- sabareesh 8y agoI am also wondering does source of pollution is always local ?
- mikkei 8y agoNot always, wind has a huge impact
