99% of the world is breathing unsafe air!
A new report from IQAir revealed that only seven countries worldwide meet the World Health Organization’s air quality guidelines. That means over 99% of the world’s population is inhaling dangerously high levels of PM2.5, which are microscopic toxic particles that can seep into the bloodstream, damaging the lungs, heart, and brain. While Australia, New Zealand, and Estonia maintain clean air, countries like Chad, Bangladesh, and India are choking on pollution levels 10 to 18 times higher than recommended. Yet with many regions lacking proper air monitoring, the full scale of the crisis remains unknown.
