Abstract
One of the biggest threats to human life is air pollution. The range of air pollution in Delhi and the measures implemented to reduce them have endured many changes. As per a report by the Energy Policy Institute at the University of Chicago (EPIC), India's 1.3 billion residents face annual average pollution levels that surpass guidelines as set by the WHO. The study also revealed that over 52 crore Indians have reduced life expectancy due to air pollution. Affecting over 40 percent of our population, air pollution is a major public health issue. This paper provides detailed views of the author regarding the emerging increase in air pollution and its causes and measures that have been implemented.
