10 dangerous hours of Tehran

The normalization of the “traffic plan” by the municipality and the government’s indifference to the air crisis has caused the peak of pollution.

Tehran has been in “orange” state for 8 days due to unhealthy air, without any reaction from the policy makers to “prevent the accumulation of air pollution in the sky of the capital”.

In the past years, the series toxic air pollution was released in Tehran weeks after the weather got colder.

But this year, while the air temperature is above 20 degrees in some hours of the day, and even in some residential and non-residential buildings, the cooling system is used at the end of the second month of autumn, the “fine air pollutant particles” have exceeded the permissible level. Tehran is breathe “dangerous 10 hours” on polluted days.
