I tend to expect that in 90+ AQI environments the net benefit is colossal. But that's a purely intuitive guess.
- carlmr 3y agoI don't know if there's a direct risk, but the amount of masks I found in waterways and thrown into the gutters is definitely not sustainable. If there's a direct risk it's just strictly worse. I would assume the direct risk of most masks is VOCs, since most new masks had a smell like a new car. Especially after they got mass produced by shady companies that didn't need certification anymore, thank you German state corruption. But even then it might be a net benefit for someone living in Delhi.
