Looks post-apocalyptic, doesn’t it? Well, that will pretty much be the reality if the pollution levels in Delhi continue rising. Today, I have just the video for you that shows what’s in store for all of us if the pollution levels reach their peak. I am sure all of you know that the numbers are not going to be pretty, but a mere look at some of these facts will shake you to the core and have you wondering how bad things could actually get. So hang tight, as you go through these alarming facts about pollution that every Delhiite should know:
If you’ve ever lived in Delhi NCR in the months of November/December, chances are, you’re familiar with sights like these:

I don’t know about you, but I’m pretty concerned about my health. While we can do little to control the air pollution, what we can do though is filter the air we breathe. 3M respirator filters the polluted air by removing the invisible PM 2.5 dust particles. What’s more? The good folks at 3M have also come up with an AC filter which we can all install in our air conditioners. The filters also operate on fan mode, thereby purifying the air in our homes.
Rest assured, with 3M’s respirators and AC filters, the air we breathe will be free from all the dust pollutants. So if you’re concerned about the health of your loved ones, given the ever-increasing pollution, you know what to do!
