project report (12-15 pages) on Air pollution in Karnataka
Answers
Answer:
Air quality in 11 cities and towns in Karnataka has been deteriorating, thanks to the increasing number of vehicles and unscientific waste management. According to the latest data collected by the Karnataka State Pollution Control Board (KSPCB) from 19 urban habitations in the state, the PM10 level (particulate matter 10 micrometres or less in diameter) in these 10 cities and towns have been found to be way beyond the national permissible limit of 60 micro grams per cubic metre. Tumakuru tops the list, recording a PM10 level of 146 micrograms per cubic metre. Bengaluru, with PM10 level of 78 micrograms per cubic metre, stands fourth.KSPCB has been monitoring air quality at 21 places in these 19 cities and towns. The latest data is the average level measured between April and December last year, according to the report presented by minister for forest, ecology and environment B Ramanath Rai recently in the legislative assembly. Air quality in eight cities and towns in the state, including Kalaburagi, Ranebennur, Chamarajanagar, Mysuru, Bandravati, Mandya and Hassan, is well within the national permissible limit. “Vehicular emission is the main reason, followed by industrial emission, road dust and burning of garbage. Neither Bengaluru nor the other towns have followed mitigation measures suggested by us over the years. The increasing levels of bad air could pose severe health risks to people in these towns, especially for children and the aged,” a KSPCB official said.
