[sustran] Air Pollution - Delhi, Etc.

[Wendell Cox]

Within the last week there has been some discussion of the level of air
pollution in Delhi. The following chart is republished from the London Times
2000-01-17, with comparative evaluations of air pollution in urban areas
over 10m --- Delhi ranks fourth, with cleaner air only in Mumbai, New York
and London, according to this source. The rankings in this chart do not
reflect my experience, or what I hear. Does anyone know what is going on.

Chart was in an article that I found searching the site, so I cannot give a
url... Headline was "Traffic Fumes do not Harm London's Health."

Best regards,
