Tashkent currently ranks first on the list of the world's most polluted cities. The air condition has reached a dangerous level for breathing, especially in the Uchtepa and Almazar districts of the city.
The following recommendations were given to the population:
- Minimize outdoor time as much as possible;
- Keep windows closed;
- Wear a mask or respirator when going outside.
In addition, magnetic storms appeared at the beginning of the week. This condition can cause symptoms such as headache, high blood pressure, and weakness.
In the city of Karshi, the content of PM-2.5 particles in the air also increased by 2-3 times compared to the national norm.
Such high levels of air pollution are not limited to transport and industrial activities, but are also associated with the destruction of building materials, felling of trees, and the reduction of green spaces.
